Frequently Asked Questions
What is a syndication profit split?
A syndication profit split dictates how the profits from a real estate investment are divided between the General Partners (GPs) who manage the deal and the Limited Partners (LPs) who provide the capital.
What is a typical GP/LP split?
Typical splits range from 70/30 (70% to LPs, 30% to GPs) to 80/20. The exact split depends on the deal's risk profile, the GP's experience, and the amount of work required.
How is my individual return calculated?
Your return is calculated by first determining the total LP profit pool based on the split percentage, then multiplying that pool by your ownership percentage (your investment divided by the total LP investment).
Does this tool account for preferred returns?
Yes! This tool supports preferred return calculations. You can set a preferred return percentage that LPs receive before any profit is split between the GP and LP pool.

Absolutely. You can add as many investors as needed, each with their own name, investment amount or percentage, and an optional description.

Who is a General Partner (GP)?
The GP is the active manager of the syndication. They find the deal, secure financing, manage the property, and execute the business plan.
Who is a Limited Partner (LP)?
An LP is a passive investor who provides capital for the syndication but has no active role in management or day-to-day operations.
Why do GPs get a share of the profit?
GPs receive a share of the profit (the 'promote') as compensation for their expertise, time, and the effort required to successfully execute the investment strategy.
