What people actually write us

"I own a manufacturing company and my partner wants out.""My loan matures in 45 days.""I have a distressed note I'd rather sell than foreclose.""I'm retiring and want to sell my...""I'm a broker with a live opportunity.""I need rescue capital.""There's a lawsuit tied to the deal."

We're looking for deals with upside.

A value-add play. A situation where somebody who knows what they're doing can change the outcome. Distressed is fine. Ugly is fine. Boring and perfect is somebody else's business.

Upside, not perfection
Perfect isn't required. In fact, situations with fixable problems are often more interesting to us.
Value-add plays
Mismanaged, under-leased, over-levered, under-marketed, badly structured. Fixable problems with math behind them.
Distressed is fine
Default notices, maturity walls, partner blowups, litigation attached, lender breathing down your neck. We also consider opportunities arising from restructurings and bankruptcy proceedings, including asset sales, 363 sales, stalking-horse opportunities, and businesses or divisions being sold or spun off.
Real situations only
Businesses, real estate, loans, notes, portfolios, JVs, recaps. If there's a live decision to make, it belongs here.

Intermediaries.

Brokers are protected.

If you bring us a qualified opportunity, we'll document your role and agreed fee before moving forward. If the transaction closes on agreed terms, your fee is handled through the closing.

No games. No disappearing broker.
