Capital Strategy

Using capital as a strategic accelerant

Capital is the lifeblood of real estate. All too often, companies view capital as a constraint on their strategic ambitions. RCLCO’s approach emphasizes a balanced approach to capital formation and deployment in order to build capital relationships that enable and accelerate your organization’s broader strategic objectives.

In order to thrive throughout market cycles, leading real estate companies are able to consistently secure aligned capital and allocate it accretively. We work with our clients to define a capital stack that optimizes cost, volume, control & discretion across a range of investment strategies including major M&A transactions. Our capital advisory work is deeply informed by our broad set of relationships in the real estate industry spanning traditional and non-traditional sources of debt and equity.

Build a more stable capital base

Effectively managing capital risk through the real estate cycle differentiates the industry’s most successful companies. RCLCO’s capital advisory work can help you identify capital sources that are aligned with your organization’s needs and create structures designed to outperform in both favorable and unfavorable market conditions.

Execute complex and accretive transactions

Major transactions are a powerful way to amplify value and achieve your strategic objectives. Yet, poorly executed transactions create substantial risk; after all, 70% of mergers fail. We partner with clients throughout the real estate industry to avoid common pitfalls and maximize the success of their M&A activity through careful due diligence and sustained integration.
