Carried Interest / Promote - How it works in UK Real Estate Private Equity & Pay Out Ranges (UK Based)

I am interested in knowing how the promote is calc'd, assuming for ease £100m of equity fund.

What sort of equity contribution is usually required?

What hurdle is likely used, I take it the norm is mid teens returns in Real Estate?

What is the usual hold period for a fund?

What level of carry pay out is likely for (assuming that they get 15% IRR over the life of the fund):
