The topic discussed revolves around the distribution of returns, known as 'waterfalls,' in real estate syndication. The speaker used an example to explain the distribution process: a $5 million property bought entirely with investor funds that yields annual rents of $550,000.In this scenario, the investors are promised a 7% preferred return, also known as a 'pref,' amounting to $350,000 annually. This pref gets distributed first from the rental income. Any income beyond this pref, in this case, $200,000 ($550,000 - $350,000), is then split between the investor and the sponsor in a 70:30 ratio. This means the investor receives an additional $140,000, and the sponsor gets $60,000.Upon selling the property for $6.5 million in year five, the first payout is the return of the principal investment of $5 million to the investors. Since the 7% pref has been regularly paid, the next step is dividing the remaining $1.5 million between the investor and the sponsor, again in a 70:30 ratio. This results in $1,050,000 for the investor and $450,000 for the sponsor.To calculate the internal rate of return (IRR), a T-bar diagram is used, which tallies all payouts across the investment period. The total annualized return for the investor in this example is 13%.Read more about Reg D - The SEC and Its Regulation D: https://www.moschettilaw.com/sec-reg-d/Read more about real estate syndication - How to Syndicate Real Estate: https://www.moschettilaw.com/how-to-syndicate-real-estate/👇 SUBSCRIBE TO THE MOSCHETTI SYNDICATION LAW GROUP YOUTUBE CHANNEL NOW 👇https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCVh1CNQULC45Bh6j4WV2sjA?sub_confirmation=1Check out these Top Trending Blog Articles – 1.)
