@Emilie PaThe answer may be a bit more involved than you're aware, depending on if your language of the company "selling" to you is correct, or whether the company is dissolving and distributing its assets to the shareholder. 

@Robert MorrisI have seen this technique done by an older landlord/mom and pop owners of C class properties but it worked well for them because they were in a 20-50 unit range of properties that they were self managing - they were also local to their properties.

It is not a distribute if setup the correct way.

Then, when you distribute dividends to yourself, you must pay taxes on those dividends on your individual income tax return.

So if you have a business entity other than a sole proprietorship you will file that business return and receive either a K-1 distribution or pay corporate taxes on the profit. 

How is the acquisition fee distributed if no compensation should be tied to the amount raised?

Due to current market conditions and unforeseen financial challenges, we havedecided to temporarily suspend distribution payments.

Tenants save money when using a shared meter, so there's plenty of room for error when calculating how to distribute the charges.

If that was the only investment that wasn't distributing I wouldn't think too much about it, but I have 5 or 6 other investments with Lane and none are distributing.

We are working out how to fairly distribute the cash flow so everyone is compensated.
