🎙️ Jargon Bin | Week 3
The Jargon Bin episode compares two common real estate return metrics: equity multiple and internal rate of return (IRR). Equity multiple measures total cash returned relative to capital invested—e.g., a 2x multiple means you doubled your money—without regard to timing. IRR is a time-weighted measure that reflects how quickly returns are received, so earlier cash distributions or short holds raise IRR even if total dollars are the same. The hosts note IRR can be more easily manipulated by timing and is favored by investors focused on capital velocity, while equity multiple appeals to those prioritizing total-dollar outcomes over longer horizons.
