Private real estate capital

The deal closes on time. The raise takes as long as it takes.

Private credit funds the equity on closing day, so a close never waits on a raise. Investors take their interest in the asset afterward, at their own pace, and their capital retires the loan.

Not crowdfunding.Not a listings board.No countdown on anybody.

For sponsors and developers, and the family offices and private investors who back them.

A sponsor with the balance sheet to absorb it. Most do not.

Both sides of the same deal

One structure. The pressure comes off both ends.

The sponsor stops racing a clock. The investor stops being rushed. Neither of those is a favour to the other, which is why the structure holds.

If you’re a sponsor

Close without a raise hanging over you.

  • 01The close is funded on day one. You are not calling investors while diligence is still open, and you are not guessing whether the money will be there.
  • 02Findings surface before capital moves. A bad roof report costs you a deal instead of costing your investors money they have already wired.
  • 03No personal cheque for a shortfall, and no broker relationship burned by a raise that came up short.
  • 04Keep the position you want. Sell down only the rest, on your own timetable, with your own consent. You hold the units, so you set the price.

If you’re an investor

Decide without a deadline.

  • 01The building is already bought. The question is whether you want to own it, not whether you can beat a wire cutoff on Friday.
  • 02Real numbers, not projections. By the time you commit, the asset has been operating and there is history to read.
  • 03A cheque that fits you, rather than one sized by whatever the sponsor still has left to fill this week.
  • 04Time to actually do diligence. Nobody makes a good decision on a hundred page offering document in nine days, and nobody should have to.

How it works

Borrow the money that has a deadline. Raise the money that does not.

Three moves, in this order. The order is the whole idea.

MOVE 01

A bridge funds the equity at closing

Private credit covers the LP equity on closing day, secured against the asset and sitting behind the sponsor’s own capital. The close happens on schedule, with diligence finished properly rather than rushed to fit a fundraising calendar.

The deadline moves to a lender built for deadlines
MOVE 02

Interests are placed with no clock on them

Family offices and private investors take fractional interests in a closed, operating asset. They get to do real diligence at their own pace on a building that already exists, rather than one that might not trade.

A better decision, because there was time to make one
MOVE 03

Their capital retires the bridge

Proceeds pay the loan down as they arrive. The bridge is temporary by design and priced to be repaid, not carried. When the last interest is placed it is ordinary LP equity, and nobody wrote a personal cheque to get there.

Credit in, equity out, no gap in between
The capital converts, it does not stack up

Closing day
$2.0M

All credit. The deal is closed and the sponsor has written nothing.

Day 48
$1.05M
$950K

Half converted. Four investors in, each one paying the loan down as they fund.

Day 96
$2.0M

All equity. Bridge repaid. An ordinary LP cap table, arrived at without a scramble.

The agent

Taking the clock out creates ninety days of relationship. Somebody has to carry it.

This is the part people miss. Without a deadline, investors stop moving as one group and start moving as twelve individuals, each at a different stage, for three months. That is more relationship work than the old scramble, not less. It is just spread out. So we built something to carry it.

I answer their questions, chase the paperwork, and tell you when someone actually needs you.

Not a portal you log into.Not an email blast.I go to the investor, not the other way round.

The building condition report doesn’t say anything about the roof. Is that deliberate?
Rails
Good catch, and it was flagged. The vendor’s report excluded the roof, so the sponsor rejected it and commissioned an independent one. It is in your folder as Exhibit C. Eight to ten years of remaining life, no capital reserve needed at close.

What it handles

  • ADeal questions, answered against the offering documents and reports, with the page cited, at any hour.
  • BDocuments and signatures. Sends what is missing, knows who is outstanding, checks the package is executed in the right places.
  • CCommitment and funding tracking against the placement target, so the number is current without anyone reconciling it.
  • DWire coordination and the follow up on day three, so nobody makes the same call twice.
  • EKnowing when to stop. Cold feet, a legal question, a request for better terms: those come to you.

Questions

The five things people ask in the first ten minutes.

Is this crowdfunding?

No, and the difference is the part that matters. Crowdfunding platforms raise acquisition equity: the money has to arrive before a closing date, and if it does not, a live deal dies. That is what broke the last generation. Here the asset is already bought and the sponsor is placing interests they already hold. There is no deal to lose while the placement runs.

What happens if the placement is slow?

It costs interest carry, which is priced in from the start and known to everyone before the bridge is drawn. That is the trade: a quantifiable cost replaces an existential one. A slow raise used to mean a dead deal and a damaged reputation with brokers. Now it means a slightly more expensive quarter.

LP units can’t transfer without the GP’s consent. That’s in every agreement.

Correct, and we are not asking anyone to remove it. Sponsors keep that clause because they want control over who is on their cap table, which is reasonable. The structure works precisely because the sponsor is the one initiating. They hold the interests post close and they consent to the placement. No clause to renegotiate, and no limited partner going around anybody.

Who carries the credit risk?

The lender, on ordinary commercial terms: secured against real property, with the sponsor’s own equity in front of it, short duration, and a defined takeout. What makes it underwritable is that the repayment source is observable rather than promised. The placement runs on the platform, so the lender can watch the loan being retired.

Are you registered to do this?

We are building the compliance layer before the growth layer, which is the reverse of the platforms currently in litigation. That means identity and source of funds verification to the FINTRAC standard, beneficial ownership capture for corporate and trust subscribers, sanctions and politically exposed person screening on a re screen schedule, and product diligence and suitability files to NI 31 103, with registrant status gating who can do what. Distribution runs through appropriately registered parties. Ask us and we will show you the whole matrix.
