They will charge extra for any extra work performed, but it could be much more beneficial than tying up that much equity in a partnership with someone you don't know.Also, if you ever do have a partnership, spend the money on the front-end with an attorney to get a sound operating agreement that makes the divorce less messy if it comes to that.
