A joint venture agreement is a contract that defines how two or more parties collaborate on a real estate project, including contributions, governance, and profit sharing. It helps prevent misunderstandings by documenting each party’s rights and duties.
Typically, investors, developers, lenders, and operators participate in a JV. The exact mix depends on the project scope, financing needs, and risk tolerance.
Ownership can be structured as a percentage of equity, a preferred return, or a combination. Clear definitions of control and decision rights help prevent disputes.
Provisions for risk allocation, guarantees, insurance, and remedies provide protection against losses and keep partners aligned.
Profits may be distributed as preferred returns, then paid out to investors, with residuals allocated according to ownership and terms.
Exit rights can include buy-sell provisions, drag-along or tag-along rights, and defined timelines for dissolution.
