Step 1 of 2 · Search brief
For business buyers only: companies, entrepreneurs, operators and investors. Describe your investment criteria: property type, region, budget, available equity, preferred financing route and operating model.
Step 2 of 2 · Investment Readiness
Two minutes. This helps us determine whether a deal is financeable and executable, and lets us prepare a focused mandate call.
Within 24 hours you will receive a reply proposing an Investment Thesis / Mandate Call: we review your criteria, capital position and operating model and determine whether a paid acquisition mandate or deal screening makes sense.
A crucial distinction
The key question is not only whether the property is attractive or legally transferable, but whether the business plus the real estate is financeable, properly licensed and operationally viable.
