We are the advisor for several private equity groups looking to deploy capital into distressed / opportunistic real estate. Our investors are comfortable investing on either the equity or debt side. We are focused on acquiring commercial real estate assets owned by banks, insurance companies and distressed sellers as well as performing, sub-performing and non-performing debt. These investors have $50 to 400 million in cash to deploy.

We are looking to acquire "story deals" with an upside that can be created by the innovative use of capital, rapid closing timeline or better property management. Unless the deal has some "hair" on it, the Bison team does not want to play. We are looking for situations that do not fit the cookie cutter of institutional investors where we can bring a fast, creative solution.

Not interested in:

• land
• cap rate deals
• stabilized assets
• bidding situations

Starting in 1994, we have focused the bulk of our time and talent on generating fee income from the sale and financing of Florida commercial properties and establishing relationships with key developers, investors and capital providers that would ultimately lead to partnerships and equity ownership. You can find our Track Record by following this link.

We have been involved in over a billion dollars in transactions as either a real estate broker, mortgage broker, development advisor or principal since the firm was founded. We look forward to building a prosperous enterprise with significant growth as an integral part of the Tampa Bay community.
