Key Takeaways
- Private equity in real estate means pooling capital to acquire assets that individual investors couldn't buy alone.
- The GP-LP structure aligns incentives: the GP operates, the LP provides capital, and returns are split per the waterfall.
- Fund structure, fee transparency, and redemption terms all matter — read the PPM before you write a check.
- Private equity gives passive investors access to institutional-quality real estate with professional management.
