So basically, to know if you are getting less return than the direct to Rise48 people, Spark would need to disclose their arrangement with Rise48 and you would need to look at your own subscription docs with Spark to see if they outline their own fees and carried interest.Although, I can speculate with pretty strong certainty that you are receiving a slightly lower return than direct to Rise48 investors.

If they push back and need more icing on the cake, consider offering an equity share arrangement.

If they want to seller finance it from you, that would be difficult since you're already the mortgagor on the 1st seller finance arrangement.
