How an engagement works.
A deliberate process with full disclosure at each stage, one principal throughout, and no surprises at closing.
From introduction to funding.
Introduction
A confidential conversation about the transaction, your timeline, and what a strong outcome looks like. We tell you plainly whether we can add value.
Mutual NDA
Both parties execute a non-disclosure and non-circumvention agreement. You receive principal biographies, references, transaction history, and program terms.
Structuring
We review the financials, design the capital stack, and prepare a lender-ready package that presents the strongest accurate version of your request.
Market & Negotiate
We take the request to the capital sources best suited to it, collect competing term sheets, and negotiate rate, leverage, recourse, and flexibility.
Close
We coordinate underwriting, third-party reports, and legal documentation through to funding, so you can stay focused on the business.
Private by design. Transparent once engaged.
We do not publish our principals, clients, or transactions. That discretion protects the people we work with, and it is extended to every client in turn.
Qualified parties receive full disclosure in stages, each one verifiable before the next.
A conversation about your objectives and an overview of the firm.
Principal biographies, verifiable references, transaction history, and program terms.
Written engagement terms and lender term sheets for your mandate.
Before we speak.
Does Aurevaux lend its own capital?
No. We are an advisory firm that represents the borrower. We arrange financing from banks, agency lenders, life companies, private credit funds, family offices, and other capital sources, and negotiate the terms on your behalf.
Will an introduction affect my credit?
No. The first conversation is about the transaction itself. Nothing touches your credit until you choose to move forward with a specific lender.
How is my information protected?
Inquiries are held in confidence. Detailed financial information is exchanged only after a mutual non-disclosure agreement is in place, and is shared with capital sources only with your consent.
How long does a financing take?
It depends on the structure. Bridge and private capital can close in a matter of weeks; bank, agency, and SBA financing takes longer. We set a realistic timeline in the first conversation.
Why use an advisor instead of going to my bank?
Your bank can offer only its own products. We bring multiple capital sources to compete for your transaction and negotiate on your behalf, which typically improves pricing, leverage, and flexibility.
Which mandates do you accept?
We accept a limited number of engagements where we believe we can materially improve the outcome. Transaction size, asset type, and timing are discussed in the introduction.
