Joint Venture Waterfall Templates

These meticulously designed templates incorporate sophisticated logic to illustrate profit distribution dynamics within a joint venture. The spreadsheets are tailored with diverse terms encompassing internal rate of return (IRR) thresholds, preferred equity, preferred return, simple interest, or cumulative distributions, providing you with a range of analytical perspectives. The prevalent theme sees cash splits favoring the General Partner (GP) as the Limited Partner (LP) surpasses progressively challenging hurdles. This design ingeniously incentivizes the GP to strive for superior returns on behalf of the LP.

A select number of templates within this collection are dedicated to real estate models, incorporating the most commonly utilized waterfall structures. These integrated models offer a more in-depth exploration of potential profit distribution scenarios in the real estate sector, further broadening the range of applications for these comprehensive tools.

All of these templates and spreadsheets let the user drop in contributions/distributions manually except for the real estate acquisition model, which has bottom up assumptions for driving revenues/expenses/debt/and the resulting cash flow.
