Joint Venture % Split Question
I have a friend with quite a bit of idle cash. He always approaches me to find/partner with him on multifamily investments. My background is in SFR real estate investing. I have always been excited to enter into the large multifamily investment space. He would put up all the money and be considered a very passive investor. I would investigate and analyze the deal. On a percentage basis, how would you structure the joint venture. Could I justify a straight split(ie, 70/30) of all cash flow/profit upon exit?

Brian Gerace there are 4 parts of a deal to make a guideline on who gets what: 1) who is bringing the funding 2) who is doing the work 3) who found the deal 4) whos experience/network is being leveraged
A good starting point is evening weigh each of those 25% each but its very subjective and based on your personal relationship.
If you want to get my opinion on what is fair let me know.
