Description:
Equity Capital Funding Group (ECF) is a private global investment firm. ECF structures and originates secured, low-risk, investment vehicles in the commercial real estate sector. Founded in 1998, ECF is based in New York, has its hub for European, Middle East and African (EMEA) operations in London, with satellite offices in seven countries.
EXPANSION FUNDING
ECF’s mandate is to provide long-term security and growth for its client’s capital, all the while providing them with exceptional current income. ECF does not “trade” CDO, CDS, MBS, and Primary or Secondary debt for profit. The firm economically employs equity and bulk financing for its portfolio acquisition and repositioning activities. Prudent use of leverage is a core capital preservation and risk management strategy of the company.
With $400M and favorable bank terms (FNMA/FHLMC), ECF seeks $100M in Private Equity for its Income/Growth Fund (Fund II). The firm will acquire and hold indefinitely, Commercial Multi-Family Residential assets (MFR) within select submarkets of major Metropolitan Statistical Areas (MSA), which demonstrate historically durable characteristics and a current expansion initiative. Funds provide working and investment capital for the acquisition of properties.
The General Partner retains a 1% interest in the Limited Partnership and assumes complete responsibility for the origination, acquisition, management and timing of all capital exchanges (i.e. 1031) for its investors.
