Taxable Event? Reinvesting Acquisition Fee as Equity

[Drew Shirley]

I'm working on my first apartment syndication and would like to re-invest part or all of my acquisition fee into the project as more "skin in the game." 

Is there a way to do this without paying taxes on the reinvested funds?

I'm pretty sure I'd have to receive the acquisition fee in an entity that allows retained earnings, but I don't want it to be a C corp. Any other way to do this?
