Tax benefits, equity pay down from tenants.

The resulting cashflow is split evenly among the partners, as is the equity from the sale (when it eventually sells).One key thing for all partners to understand is that cashflow is only one lever you can pull in real estate investing and, depending on how your partnership is structured, you may also be equally sharing the tax benefits, appreciation, and additional principal created through debt paydown.
