2 CLASSES OF PASSIVE INVESTMENTS AVAILABLE

Class A Limited Partner: Preferred treatment — paid before both Class B Limited Partners and General Partners

  • Minimum investment: $100,000
  • Cash flow distributions: 10% annual preferred cash on cash returns – paid monthly
  • Equity at sale: None. At sale, investors’ initial investment capital is returned to them, along with their share of cash flow due.
  • Does not share in depreciation.
  • This class is the least susceptible to economic uncertainty and has the highest expected returns from cashflow, but has no opportunity for equity growth.

Class B Limited Partner

  • Minimum investment: $50,000
  • Cash flow distributions: 7% annual preferred cash on cash return – paid quarterly. Above the 7% threshold, cash flow is split 70/30 with the GPs (70% to Class B investors, 30% to GPs).
  • Equity at Sale: At sale, investors’ initial investment capital is returned to them. Remaining equity left after costs of sale are split 70/30 with the GPs up to a 15% IRR threshold. Above 15% IRR, funds are split 60/40 with the GPs.
  • Shares in depreciation with GPs.
  • This payment structure aligns the GPs’ interests with the passive investors’. The GPs don’t earn returns unless the property performs well enough to make the minimum distributions to the passive investors, and the better the property performs after that, the more the GPs can earn.

GPs’/Sponsors’ Fees

  • Acquisition Fee: A one-time fee of 2% of the purchase price, paid upon acquisition, for the costs and effort expended identifying, securing, financing, and structuring the deal.
  • Asset Management Fee:  The asset managers will receive a monthly payment of 2% of total monthly income for their efforts managing the property management and the investment overall.
  • Refinance/Disposition Fee:  None.
WAYS TO INVEST
  • Cash investment in your name (single or joint)
  • Cash investment through an entity (e.g., trust, LLC, or S-corp)
