from my experince from LPs its easier to move to GPs because you are connect to more of them
As a GP its easier to move to an LP because you are connect to all of them. Any other change (unless you change asset type) is really a move to a competitor which can be dicey.
bump
Very easy. Coming from the GP side, you should have more knowledge of the nuts and bolts of deals. LPs take a higher level view of things and focus more on volume. Your perspective would be valuable.
depends. some institutional lps are very involved and arent passive
I think many people over estimate how hard it is. Yes there will be LPs that say we only want someone from an LP when we hire and GP’s that say they only want someone from a GP. However, many organizations are 100% cognizant that it’s really the same job, just less in the weeds or more in the weeds. Many LPs like people from GPs coming into their organization because of the diversity of experience and nuts/bolts real estate knowledge. Many GPs like those from the LP side because as the GP firm is growing, the LP knowledge will help the firm institutionalize and put institutional processes in place.
Your deal experience and the quality of your firm will be more important than whether your at a GP or LP.
Well, plus the work is completely different..
I haven't found the work to be that much different in my time in both. Curious to hear why you feel that way.
EDIT:
As a point of clarity, I'm talking about GP/LP at the deal level where your an acquisitions / asset management professional at either, not at the fund level where the GP is a a institutional real estate firm and the LP is pension money.
