Looking for some input on this situation please.

Lily bought a condo for $440,000
Lily put $70,000 down payment
Lily's mother added $20,000 for the down payment

Lily moved in with boyfriend (Mike) and is now common-law with him and has two children together.

Lily just sold the condo today for $749,000.

Lily and Mike refinanced and there is $521,000 currently left on the mortgage.

What would be a fair way to split the gains.

I was thinking $749,000-$521,000 = $228,000 left in cash.
Give Lily back $70,000 for down payment
Give back Lily's mom $20,000 for down payment

$228,000 - $70,000 - $20,000 = $138,000

Put $138,000 into Lily and Mike's Joint account.

Does that seem fair?


Lily likes my idea above, but Mike thinks all of the proceeds should be going into their joint account.
