Most MF analysis is a simple cash-flow analysis with a waterfall structure to understand LP/GP returns.

The house I asked for advice on was different, but still risky in some ways, and when I calmed down I considered those issues, wiped the dollar signs out of my eyes, and moved on. 

I also understand how capital stacks and equity waterfalls work in typical private equity deals.But here is my question.

Hi,I'd love to hear any suggestions or ideas for my situation...TIAI own a large home (4000 sq ft, 5 bed, 3.5 bath, nice pool and waterfall).

So, I am figuring out how to keep her calm and be part of this team that we are.For my DIY-ers attached is a photo of my deck... everything on the house is original from our old landlord. underneath the deck it collects water and it sits there, my wife is afraid the deck might be starting to become unleveled, any tips about this?

So, if the LPs get 80% of the total profits, they have 80% of the equity currently in the deal.The calculation is much harder when you are in a deal with a waterfall return scheme that may included preferred returns, returns up to some IRR, a different split above that, and of course, you would have to pay attention to all fees the syndicator is charging, which can bee substantial.  

Please calm a newbie down if I am worrying too much.Here goes the question.

Calmly calculate if you can survive until your next couple bookings.

Calm down. $126,000 🏡  don't generate cash flow of $1,100.Although I know a fella who nets $2,500 on a $170,000 vacation rental.
