Chain and conveyance
Gaps in chain; defective execution, acknowledgment, delivery, or recording; conflicting instruments; identity, authority, capacity, or legal-description defects; and questionable conveyances.
For real estate professionals
Bring us the deal that cannot close as presented.
We evaluate assets and transferable positions impaired by chain-of-title defects, succession and authority issues, lien priority, tax or mortgage enforcement, adverse claims, or curative cost and timing that no longer fit the original transaction.

Direct acquisition · Interest or position purchase · Case-specific joint venture
Structure follows diligence.
Availability is subject to transferability, legal authority, licensing requirements, third-party approvals, our underwriting, and mutually executed documents.
Matters within the review queue
Complexity is part of the basis, not an exception to it.
We underwrite the parties, authority, claims, dependencies, cost, timing, and exit—not simply the property’s clean-title value.
Succession and authority
Decedent title; intestacy; multigenerational heirship; incomplete administration; disputed fiduciary authority; and trust, entity, marital, life-estate, remainder, or co-tenancy interests.
Liens and enforcement
Unreleased security instruments; assignment or foreclosure-chain defects; tax sale and redemption issues; judgments; municipal, mechanics’, association, code, payoff, and priority disputes.
Adverse interests and proceedings
Quiet title, partition, adverse possession, bankruptcy, receivership, lis pendens, pending litigation, occupant or possession claims, and estate or governmental claims.
Transactional distress
Contracts, options, ownership interests, and other positions whose curative burden, deadline, carrying cost, or counterparty risk exceeds the original underwriting.
Engagement paths
Define the objective before defining the structure.
01
Sell the asset
We evaluate a direct acquisition of the property in its present title and physical condition.
02
Sell an interest or position
Where legally transferable and within our criteria, we evaluate an ownership, inherited, contractual, or other documented position.
03
Explore a joint venture
For matters with aligned economics and a defensible curative thesis, we can evaluate a written, case-specific collaboration.
A partnership or joint venture does not exist unless and until definitive written documents are executed by all parties.
