A broker is accountable for closing the deal in front of you. We're accountable for where it leaves you.
Two doors, two processes
These are deliberately different engagements
Business owners and real estate investors need opposite things from a capital partner. So the economics are different, and we say so up front.
Door one
Business financing
Working capital, term loans, lines of credit, and MCA restructure. This lane is fee-gated. There are no free consultations and no free quotes on this site, anywhere.
- Paid Capital Position Review — the diagnostic comes first
- Documents first: statements and debt schedule before we speak
- One scheduled call, not a phone campaign
- A written deliverable you keep, regardless of outcome
Door two
Real estate investors
New construction, fix & flip, bridge, non-owner HELOCs, DSCR, and commercial. You come with a deal in hand and you know your numbers. No fee, no strategy session required — a direct application lane.
- Free preapproval — no fee, no gate
- Deal-ready intake built for a phone
- Soft credit pull only at prequalification
- Five programs across acquisition, rehab, and equity
The five pillars
Five things a commission broker structurally cannot say
01
The roadmap comes first
A written capital plan before anyone talks deals. Not a term sheet hunt — a plan for where this business needs its balance sheet to be in twelve months, and what capital gets it there.
02
Sometimes the answer is "not yet"
If borrowing today makes your position worse, I'll say so, tell you exactly what to fix, and give you the timeline to come back. A commission-only broker structurally cannot afford that sentence.
03
Built to graduate you
Every engagement includes an explicit path off expensive money and onto bank or SBA terms — with the DSCR and balance-sheet targets you have to hit to get there.
04
We clean up the damage
MCA stack restructure and consolidation. If you're three positions deep with daily remits, that's a solvable problem — but only if someone calculates the blended cost before recommending anything.
05
We don't disappear at funding
Quarterly reviews, refi triggers, and rate-change calls. Funding is the middle of the engagement, not the end of it.
The honest comparison
Three ways to look for capital
Two of these are free at the point of entry. That is precisely the problem — someone still gets paid, and it isn't out of thin air.
| Free broker | Bidding marketplace | Centaurian | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cost to start | Free — you are the product | About $45 to be listed | Capital Position Review, $500 |
| Who reads your statements | Often nobody before the first call | An automated parser | I read every file personally, before we speak |
| Who calls you | A commissioned rep, repeatedly | A panel of buyers, for weeks | One scheduled call, at a time you booked |
| What happens to your file | Submitted broadly to find a yes | Distributed to the full panel at once | Sequenced one lender at a time, on your written approval |
| Your remaining lender pool | Largely spent within weeks | Spent on day one | Preserved and tracked |
| What you leave with | An offer, or silence | Call volume | A written deliverable, regardless of outcome |
| Told "don't borrow yet"? | Never — there is no commission in no | Never | When it's the right answer, yes |
