Fiducia Capitalis is a private capital advisory firm structuring and placing institutional debt and equity for sponsors, operators, and investors across the commercial real estate and specialty finance markets. We arrange capital across the structure, on terms that reflect the deal, not the desk.
Fiducia Capitalis was established to serve a category of borrower and sponsor the institutional capital markets increasingly underserve: sophisticated principals with real assets, real cash flows, and capital needs that fall outside the credit boxes of regional banks and the mandates of commodity equity allocators.
We operate as principal-led advisors across the full capital structure. The firm's debt practice arranges senior, mezzanine, and structured debt across bridge, construction, permanent, CMBS, and specialty asset financings. The equity practice arranges joint-venture, preferred, and programmatic equity from family offices, institutional LPs, and discretionary capital partners. Each engagement is staffed by senior professionals with direct relationships, capital markets experience, and the discretion required for situations where execution matters more than process.
Independence is structural. Fiducia is not affiliated with any lender, equity allocator, or balance sheet. Our recommendations reflect the market, not a desk. Sponsors retain us because that independence produces better terms.
We arrange senior debt, structured debt, and institutional equity across asset classes, transaction sizes, and complexity profiles. Engagements typically range from $50 million to $300 million, with selective work above and below that band.
Short-term senior financing for value-add acquisitions, repositionings, lease-ups, and recapitalizations. Floating- or fixed-rate, interest-only, with flexible prepayment.
Senior construction loans for ground-up multifamily, mixed-use, hospitality, and seniors housing. Sized to total cost with mini-perm extensions where warranted.
Long-term fixed-rate financing through life insurance companies, agency, and bank platforms. Targeted for stabilized assets seeking maximum proceeds at the lowest available coupon.
Securitized senior debt for stabilized commercial properties. Maximum-proceeds execution for institutional-quality assets across multifamily, office, retail, industrial, and hospitality.
Subordinate debt arranged alongside senior to maximize sponsor leverage while preserving control. Structured to fit the transaction, including current-pay, accrual, and hybrid coupons.
Hybrid senior and subordinated debt combined into a single facility under one set of documents, executed at a blended rate. Streamlined for sponsors who need speed, simpler intercreditor mechanics, and a single point of negotiation.
Large credit facilities arranged across a syndicate of lenders, structured to spread exposure while preserving execution certainty for the borrower. Coverage of lead arranger, co-lead, and participant roles across money-center banks, regional banks, and institutional investors.
Programmatic and one-off joint-venture equity for acquisition, development, and recapitalization transactions. Sourced from institutional LPs, family offices, and discretionary capital partners.
Structured preferred capital filling the gap between senior debt and common equity. Current-pay, accrual, or hybrid distribution structures with tailored conversion and redemption mechanics.
Long-duration programmatic capital for sponsors building scaled platforms. Discretionary commitments for repeat acquisitions, ground-up development pipelines, and operating partnerships.
Capital for situations conventional channels pass on: healthcare, tribal gaming, hospitality recapitalizations, note acquisitions, and special situations requiring structure and discretion.

His practice spans senior debt, mezzanine, preferred equity, and programmatic capital across asset classes.

He maintains active dialogue with senior decision-makers at over 300 capital sources, spanning money-center and regional banks, life insurance companies, debt funds, credit hedge funds, asset-based and specialty finance lenders, agency lenders, CMBS conduits, institutional equity allocators, family offices, and specialty capital providers.
