What it is
Acquisition capital is the financing arranged to purchase a commercial property — the senior loan that funds the majority of the purchase price, and, where the deal needs it, the structured layer that closes the gap between that loan and the total basis.
For a stabilized asset it can look like straightforward permanent financing. For a value-add purchase it usually means a facility that funds the acquisition and the capital plan together, with the future proceeds available in draws as the work gets done and the income comes through.
When to use it
Most acquisition conversations start under a clock. The useful ones start before the property is even under contract.
- A property is under contract and the financing needs to track the diligence period.
- A value-add purchase requires acquisition and renovation capital in a single facility.
- You are competing on execution and need a defensible answer to "how are you funding this?"
- An off-market opportunity surfaced and the capital needs to move at the same speed.
- A portfolio or multi-asset purchase needs to be capitalized as one coordinated structure.
How Ordeg structures and places it
Speed on an acquisition is not luck. It comes from having the file built before it is needed: a clean underwriting model, a rent roll and trailing financials that reconcile, a capital plan with real costs behind it, and sponsor materials that answer the credit questions before they are asked.
We build that package, then take the deal to capital whose appetite genuinely matches the asset, the market, and the sponsorship — a targeted process, not a broadcast. A well-matched conversation moves faster than a wide one, and it produces terms that survive committee instead of getting retraded late.
Through diligence we hold the timeline: coordinating appraisal and third-party reports, keeping the lender's checklist moving, and surfacing problems while there is still time to solve them. Certainty of execution is the product. Everything else is process.
Who it's for
Investors, developers, and sponsors buying multifamily, hospitality, and industrial assets across Miami-Dade and Broward — whether that is a first institutional-scale purchase or the next in a long series.
It is also the entry point for most international clients. Foreign investors, especially from Venezuela, Colombia, Ecuador, and Argentina, are frequently competing against domestic buyers for the same South Florida assets and need a capital structure that does not slow them down. We prepare those files with the cross-border questions already answered, and we work through the process in English and Spanish from first call to close.
