Philosophy

The partners at Bison Financial Group have more than 33 years of combined commercial real estate experience and a track record of closing over a half billion dollars in transactions. We arrange capital for real estate entrepreneurs throughout the lifecycle of their real estate investments from land acquisition to construction and eventual permanent financing. We place all levels of the capital structure including: gap equity, mezzanine and senior debt.

We arrange capital from an international network of capital providers such as:

I. Regional Capital Group: Regional Capital Group is a private short term real estate lender and investment company specializing in creative financing solutions. The Company provides creative loan programs for commercial and residential development and turnaround projects structured in the form of debt, equity and mezzanine financing. RCG offers alternative loan structures which may fall outside of the traditional lending sources to expedite a closing should an opportunistic situation arise. Loan amounts from $1-10 million considered.

II. Portfolio Lenders: Lenders that originate and retain loans in their own portfolio. This type of lender creates “the box” and does not have to live within the boundaries of the rating agencies. We have relationships with the leaders and decision makers of over 50 lenders of various sizes and temperaments including: private investors, hedge funds, banks, insurance companies and pension plans. Loan amounts from $2-250 million considered.

III. Capital Markets: Bison has relationships with several Wall Street Conduit lenders that each specialize in slightly different niches. This is often the lowest cost alternative for fixed rate, long term, non-recourse financing. The downside includes: prepayment penalties, cookie cutter loan documents, strict underwriting rules and loan guidelines. Loan amounts from $3 million.

You find the opportunities…. We will bring the capital.
