Buying income-producing assets is powerful — but the capital stack can make or break the deal.

Clearview Capital & Acquisition Advisory is a private consulting service for real estate investors, multifamily sponsors, acquisition entrepreneurs, and business buyers who need experienced support structuring, financing, and organizing complex acquisitions.

Led by Tené Williams through Clearview Eastern Management LLC, this advisory service helps clients evaluate opportunities, underwrite cash flow, design capital stacks, coordinate with lenders and capital sources, and think through deal structure before and during the acquisition process.

The service may support multifamily real estate acquisitions, business acquisitions, commercial real estate purchases, refinance strategies, seller financing structures, private credit, preferred equity, common equity, mezzanine debt, transactional funding, EMD funding, and other acquisition-related capital needs.

The business acquisition advisory agreement includes underwriting, AI-assisted due diligence, capital stack design, pre-LOI advisory, coordination with lenders/investors/equity providers, and project management from underwriting through closing.

For multifamily acquisitions, the advisory scope may include capital stack design involving private equity asset financing, transactional funding, EMD funding, agency financing, bridge loans, DSCR loans, construction financing, preferred/common equity, mezzanine debt, seller financing, and equity rollover.

This consulting engagement is designed for buyers who already have, or are actively pursuing, a real estate or business acquisition and need help answering questions like:

How should this deal be structured?

What’s Included

1. Deal Review & Underwriting

We review the acquisition opportunity, financials, deal terms, cash flow, risk points, and overall structure.

For business acquisitions, this may include financial review, cash-flow analysis, and risk assessment.

For multifamily real estate, this may include NOI, cap rate, DSCR underwriting, rent roll review, T12 analysis, refinance strategy, and exit strategy planning.

2. Capital Stack Design

We help structure the mix of capital needed to support the transaction.

Depending on the deal, the capital stack may include senior debt, term loans, SBA financing, bridge loans, DSCR loans, construction financing, mezzanine debt, preferred equity, common equity, seller financing, equity rollover, EMD funding, down payment capital, working capital, or transactional funding.

3. Acquisition Structuring Support

We help evaluate deal terms and recommend potential structure improvements before the client commits to the transaction.

This may include purchase price adjustments, seller credits, concessions, equity rollover, HUD/ALTA settlement structuring, seller financing, earn-outs, revenue-share arrangements, and other structure recommendations aligned with the overall capital stack.

4. Lender & Capital Source Coordination

We assist in organizing the deal for review by lenders, investors, equity providers, and other capital sources.

This may include coordination with capital sources to arrange the capital stack through closing, as well as collaboration with other advisory firms, lenders, investors, and equity providers when appropriate.

5. AI-Assisted Due Diligence

For business acquisitions, Clearview may provide AI-assisted due diligence covering legal, accounting, operational, and market diligence streams.
