Seems low.

Still low even given market and client base. For your YOE I say 100k. Chances are partners are keeping better work and you are doing particularly marginal client work, which is not on you.

“Undisclosed but promising” 🚩 especially based on collections which you likely have little control over.

1500 is good but doubt it is truly “soft”.

Cross posted: Has anyone ever heard of this type of real estate private equity fund structure:
