How Investors are Paid: MLG’s Private Fund Return Structure
The series of MLG Private Funds provides investors with access to investment opportunities that aim to produce tax-advantaged cash flow and appreciation over time. The Funds focus on growing investors’ wealth, capital preservation and diversification within private real estate investment. Understanding how and when returns are sent to investors is perhaps one of the most important elements of any investment structure. Within the private markets, there are a myriad of different structures that may exist. These structures can be frequently misunderstood. Our Funds utilize a “European equity waterfall return structure”. This is specifically designed to be an investor friendly return structure. This demonstrates our firm’s commitment to investors and our confidence in our ability to execute. MLG Private Funds Return Structure: Our latest Fund, Private Fund VI, intends to underwrite potential investments to a target internal rate of return of between 11% and 15% (net of Fund expenses and fees), on a leveraged basis. Each of our funds utilizes a three-tiered return structure. 100% of available distributions are paid to investors as follows1; (Tier 1) 8% cumulative preferred return on invested equity (Tier 2) 100% return of original principal invested, after a full 8% cumulative preferred return is paid (Tier…

When Private Fund IV launched in 2018, we introduced a new concept, “the Dividend Fund” as we’ve called them, in conjunction with our historic fund offerings. We’re excited to continue offering this dual structure for investors in our latest funds. While both fund options invest in the same underlying assets across each Fund, both fund options present different tax implications to investors. Let’s take a deeper dive. Why two fund options? One of the primary reasons we created the Dividend Fund structure was to better accommodate tax-advantaged accounts (i.e., IRAs, 401(k)s, etc.). Without this structure, investors using these types of accounts could face unnecessary tax due to Unrelated Business Taxable Income. UBTI is generally incurred by tax-exempt investors when participating in private real estate funds (in our case) due to the fund utilizing leverage on fund assets. The Dividend Fund structure aims to eliminate the risk of UBTI for investors using tax-advantaged accounts. What’s the same? Both fund options invest in the same assets regardless of which option you…
