Owner Draw
Cash taken out by an owner from property operations.
Definition
Owner Draw is Cash taken out by an owner from property operations. Teams usually run into it when cash is being paid out, withheld, or charged in a way that changes what ownership actually receives.
What makes it useful is that capital decisions become tense quickly when managers and owners are not looking at the same definition. These terms matter most when reserves, fees, and distributions are being debated at the same time.
Use cases
Use Owner Draw to show what cash ownership truly receives after fees and reserves.
Review Owner Draw when the team needs to explain why money was distributed, withheld, or charged.
Track Owner Draw so operations can keep payout decisions tied to the same definitions used in reporting.
