Understanding the Risks and Benefits of Private Funds
Benefits
Risks
Potential Appreciation
Private real estate funds can increase geographic reach, giving you access to diverse markets across the U.S. This may result in significant property appreciation and potential capital gains over time.
Potential Income
Investors may receive regular income distributions, typically on a quarterly or monthly basis. This provides the potential for passive cash flow, allowing you to enjoy returns without actively managing the properties.
Portfolio Diversification
Private funds offer an alternative to stocks and bonds, helping to diversify your portfolio. By adding real estate, you can mitigate risk and reduce exposure to market volatility through asset class diversification.
Tax Advantages
Real estate investments may allow you to benefit from tax advantages such as depreciation. This can be used to offset income distributions, providing a way to reduce your taxable income and improve after-tax returns.
Typically Illiquid Structure
Private funds are typically long-term investments with little to no options for early withdrawal. Investors must be comfortable with locking in their capital for 5-10 years or more, as there is no secondary market for these investments.
Subject to Market Risk
Real estate investments are sensitive to economic trends like inflation, recession, and changes in interest rates. These economic factors can impact property values and reduce the expected returns from the investment.
Involves Speculation
The success of private funds often depends on the sponsor’s projections and assumptions about the market. These projections may not always hold true, potentially resulting in reduced profits or loss of capital.
Suitability Considerations
Private funds are available only to accredited investors, typically those who meet specific income and net worth requirements. They are suitable only for those who can afford the associated risks, including the potential loss of principal.

Our network of industry-leading partners provides best-in-class investment managers, expert tax advisors, and solution-driven product developers. Together, we deliver exceptional investment solutions tailored to your needs.
