Three strategies

Each mandate is managed in-house. We do not run funds of funds and we do not chase allocations outside our circle of competence.

01

Private Credit

Senior secured lending to lower-middle-market operators, underwritten for cash yield rather than multiple expansion.

9–13% target net yield
02

Real Assets

Income-producing multifamily and industrial holdings in supply-constrained corridors across the Great Lakes region.

12 active properties
03

Growth Equity

Concentrated minority positions in profitable, founder-led companies with a five-to-ten year horizon.

6 portfolio companies

How we operate

Capital before cleverness

We underwrite downside first. Every position must survive a bad decade, not merely a good quarter.

Owner-operator alignment

Partners invest personally alongside clients in every strategy we offer. Same terms, same timeline.

Fee transparency

One published schedule. No layered vehicles, no soft-dollar arrangements, no placement commissions.

Introductions begin with a conversation, not a pitch deck.

We accept a limited number of new relationships each year. Reach out and a partner will respond directly.
