Wondering how someone would pull this off and if it’s possible
Could somebody be an LP on a ground-up MF deal and earn an assignment fee from sourcing it as an LP? 

If so, how

I actually am working on a deal right now for a client where they are an LP on a ground up office deal and they earned \"promote units\" or a share of the cf due to the gp for helping to source the deal. Its just a couple extra sentences in the jv doc specifying why the units were granted, to whom and what they get for it.\n\nLp/GP isnt something set by law handed down from God. Its just the way we organize deals.", "replies": [], "depth": 1}, {"id": "h1ebjhn", "text": "How?
