About Daniel's role: Daniel is a 1099 contractor providing maintenance services to the property. His total annual compensation for 2025 was $14,400 ($1,200/month equivalent), which combines housing in the Tiffin Allegra motor home with cash compensation for maintenance work.
🏠 IMPORTANT — Owner-Occupied Property: The property at 180 Ladybug Lane is an owner-occupied multi-unit property. Paul Walhus is a full-time resident of this property and personally occupies the first floor and portions of the second and third floors of the main house. The property also houses multiple other tenants in the cottage building, the downstairs efficiency, and various trailer/RV/tiny home/motor home units on the grounds. By signing this Agreement, Tenant acknowledges that they are entering a shared multi-unit residential property where the Landlord lives and where multiple other residents are present at all times.

1. Premises — The Motor Home Provided as Part of 1099 Compensation

Unit #701 — "Starbase" — Tiffin Allegra Motor Home (from the set of The Walking Dead), parked next to the water tower
A 2008-era Tiffin Allegra motor home, formerly used on the production set of The Walking Dead. Parked on the property at 180 Ladybug Lane, Cedar Creek, TX 78612, adjacent to the water tower.

Landlord hereby provides Tenant (in his capacity as a 1099 independent contractor providing maintenance services to the property) with the use of the above-described motor home (the "Motor Home") as part of his contractor compensation. The Motor Home is owned by Landlord and is provided to Tenant for residential use as part of his 1099 compensation arrangement, NOT as a separate rental.

Tenant has access to the property's shared exterior amenities and has additional rights as the on-site maintenance contractor, including operating two tent shops on the property for maintenance work and accessing utility / water tower areas as required for his contractor duties.

2. Other Residents of the Property

Tenant acknowledges that the property is occupied by multiple individuals at the time of signing, including but not limited to:

Tenant agrees to be respectful of all other residents at all times. Tenant understands this is not a single-tenant rental and that multiple individuals share the property simultaneously.

3. Term

This Agreement begins on ___________________ and continues on a month-to-month basis until terminated by either party with at least thirty (30) days written notice.

4. 1099 Compensation Structure

Tenant's annual compensation for his maintenance contractor role for the calendar year 2025 was $14,400.00 (equivalent to $1,200.00 per month), reported on a 1099 form. This total compensation includes:

The exact split between housing imputed value and cash compensation is determined by Landlord at year-end for tax-reporting purposes. Tenant receives a 1099-NEC at year-end reflecting the total compensation.

5. Late Fees

As a 1099 contractor compensation arrangement rather than a tenant rent obligation, late fees do not apply.

6. Security Deposit

No security deposit is required, as Tenant's residency is part of his 1099 contractor compensation arrangement and not a standard tenancy.

7. Utilities

Utilities for the Motor Home (water, electric, propane as applicable, sewer/septic) are provided by Landlord as part of Tenant's 1099 compensation arrangement. Internet is included via the property's enterprise-grade network (three independent ISPs — AT&T, T-Mobile 5G, and Starlink — bonded through a Ubiquiti Dream Machine).

  6. Operate a business or commercial activity from the Unit without written consent.

Landlord may enter the Unit at reasonable times with at least 24 hours notice for inspection, repairs, or showings, except in case of emergency.

13. Termination

Either party may terminate this Agreement with 30 days written notice. Tenant shall return all keys and leave the Unit in clean condition. Failure to provide proper notice may result in forfeiture of security deposit.

14. Governing Law
