Who we are

A financing desk built on relationships and execution

ATZI Advisory arranges debt for commercial real estate owners, sponsors and developers in the $1M to $20M range. We are not a lender. We are the party that knows where the money actually is, what each lender will genuinely fund this quarter, and how to move a file from application to closing without it stalling.

The principal has spent over a decade on the transaction side of commercial real estate, closing acquisitions, refinances, construction loans and multifamily dispositions. That experience is why a deal arrives at a lender already underwritten, with the questions a credit committee will ask answered inside the package.

1

Understand the deal

We underwrite before anything goes out: sizing, leverage, sources and uses, sponsor strength and exit.

2

Target the right lenders

We approach only the handful of capital sources whose criteria and current appetite genuinely fit your transaction.

3

Drive it to close

Diligence, appraisal, title, insurance and legal, held to a schedule until the loan funds.

At a glance

What working with us looks like

Open any item below for the detail.

You pay nothing unless the loan closesOur fee structure, in plain terms

Our advisory fee is 1% of the financed amount, earned at closing and paid from loan proceeds. There is no retainer, no application fee and no hourly billing. If we cannot place your deal, the work costs you nothing.

That structure is deliberate. It means we only take on transactions we believe are financeable, and it puts us on the same side of the table as you.

We are lender-agnosticNo incentive to steer you toward one product

We hold no loans and take no credit risk, so we have nothing to gain from placing you with one lender over another. Our only interest is the best available terms for the transaction in front of us.

Across the network we place bridge, hard money, construction, conventional bank and agency debt, and subordinate capital. The right answer depends on the asset, the business plan and the timeline, not on what we happen to have on the shelf.

A single point of contact from application to fundingWho you deal with, and what to expect

You work with one person throughout. That person underwrites the file, takes it to market, negotiates the terms and manages diligence to close. Nothing gets handed off to a processing queue.

You will always know where your deal stands. Every borrower gets a private portal showing the current stage, outstanding document requests and next steps.

Deals other lenders declined are often still financeableWhy a turndown is not the end of the conversation

A decline usually means the deal fell outside one lender's parameters, not that it lacks merit. Leverage tolerance, asset preference, sponsor requirements and current appetite vary enormously between capital sources, and they change quarter to quarter.

If a bank has passed on your transaction, it is worth a second look from someone who knows which lenders are actively funding that profile right now.

Questions

Frequently asked

What does it cost to work with you?

Our advisory fee is 1% of the loan amount, earned only when your loan closes and paid from the proceeds at closing. There are no upfront fees, retainers or application charges. If we cannot place your deal, you owe nothing.

How fast can I get a term sheet?

Term sheets typically come back within 24 to 48 hours after supporting documents are submitted. Speed depends on the asset and how quickly diligence items are provided, but we tell you within one business day whether the deal is financeable and what structures are realistic.

What loan sizes do you handle?

We focus on the $1M to $20M middle market. This range is often too large for small local lenders and too small for the largest institutions to prioritize, which is precisely where a network and an active process create the most value.

My bank already declined the deal. Can you still help?

Frequently, yes. A decline usually means the deal fell outside that particular lender's box, not that it is unfinanceable. Different lenders have very different parameters on leverage, asset type, sponsor profile and timing. That is the core of what we do.

Do you lend your own money?

No. We are an advisory firm, not a lender. We hold no loans and take no credit risk, which means we have no incentive to steer you toward a particular product. Our only interest is placing your deal on the best available terms.

What do you need from me to start?

To begin: the property, the purpose, the amount and the timeline. Once we confirm the deal is financeable, we will request the standard package — rent roll, operating statements, purchase contract or existing debt terms, a personal financial statement and sponsor background.

Is my information confidential?

Yes. Your information is reviewed by us and shared only with the specific lenders being considered for your transaction. We do not sell, distribute or publish borrower information.

Do you work outside your home state?

Our lender network is national and we regularly place transactions across multiple states. Contact us with your market and we will tell you directly whether we can serve it.
