Our Passive Commercial Real Estate Investment Process
The 5-Step Process to Make You the 100% Owner of an Income-Producing Commercial Real Estate Asset
Most investors who attempt to acquire commercial real estate on their own spend months building a team, vetting deals, and managing a process they’ve never managed before.
Step 01
1
Discovery Call
We learn exactly what you’re looking for, so we can find it.
In our first conversation, we get into the specifics: your capital position, your return targets, your timeline, and the asset types that make the most sense for your situation.
Step 02
2
Deal Matching
We put $250K a month into sourcing. You get the output.
Custom Capital maintains a full-time acquisitions division that spends over $250,000 every month building and maintaining direct relationships with developers, merchant builders, and commercial sellers across the country. We put deals under contract in our own name before they ever reach you.
Step 03
3
Due Diligence
100+ checkpoints. Hundreds of hours. None of them yours.
Before any deal reaches your desk, it has already been through our full vetting process: financial underwriting, physical inspection, tenant credit review, market analysis, lease abstraction, and title review, etc. What typically takes an individual investor weeks of fragmented effort is handled end-to-end by our dedicated Due Diligence division.
Step 04
4
Acquisition and Closing
We negotiate, coordinate, and close. You sign.
Sourcing a lender for a commercial transaction takes most investors weeks of active effort. We’ve spent years building relationships with dozens of commercial lenders. We submit applications on your behalf to 40+ lenders and show you the best offers. Your role in this phase is to review, approve, and execute. We handle the rest.
Step 05
5
Ownership and Asset Management
You own 100% of the asset. We stay in your corner.
At close, the property transfers to a buyer-controlled LLC in your name. You are the sole owner. You receive 100% of the cash flow, 100% of the tax benefits, and 100% of the appreciation from day one.

The Alternative
You Can Build This Yourself.
That's What Our Founder Did.
Patrick Truhlar
Co-Founder, Custom Capital
A former Big Six CPA with a master’s degree in accounting, decades of M&A experience, and a $75 million exit under his belt.
When he started acquiring commercial real estate on his own, it was still a full-time job.
Patrick didn’t lack capital. He didn’t lack the ability.
What he lacked was the operational infrastructure that makes acquiring commercial real estate repeatable and efficient.
That’s what Custom Capital is.
You can absolutely build this team yourself. With enough time (typically 6 to 12 months of active effort), a motivated investor can identify lenders, hire legal counsel, retain a property manager, and build a diligence process. Many people do.
Or you can use the one we already built.
“Even with significant capital and deep financial expertise, acquiring commercial real estate the right way was a full-time job.”
