Do you know and trust this individual. That is more important than the document, having said that it is VERY important to clearly define in writing what each party is expected to contribute and write it up in an official agreement signed by both parties.
We did a “partnership” with one of our contractors who owned a property that needed major rehab. We supplied all the money and he supplied the labor. We split the profits 50/50 after all expenses were paid including closing costs and interest on our money.
We also had a title agency do a title search/title insuracne and added our corperation to the deed before we issued any money.
I can give email you a copy of our agreement if you are interested. Just know that I am not providing legal advise.
An LLC would do or any other entity or even personally if you are planning on a quick turaround.
