If you’re new to real estate investing you may have heard the term distribution thrown around but are you confused about what it actually means? We’re here to help break it down.

So then why aren’t they called the same thing?

Well, in most cases they behave the same way but there can be some differences.

Distributions are payments from the equity of the company, while dividends are payments from the profit of the company. Dividends may or may not involve cash. In contrast, distributions always come in the form of cash payouts.

How are distributions calculated?

Distributions are payments from the equity of the property. They are calculated by subtracting recurring capital expenditures plus any mortgage payments and any other liabilities from the funds from operations.
