Real Estate & Construction Finance

Capital for construction disputes, lien enforcement, and developer litigation.

Non-recourse funding for construction claims, mechanic's lien portfolios, surety disputes, and real estate commercial litigation. Underwritten using construction and real estate outcome models trained on state and federal court records.

Construction disputes involve parallel tracks — arbitration, lien enforcement, and surety claims often run simultaneously. We fund across all three.

Case Types We Fund
Construction Disputes
Owner/contractor claims, delay damages, defective work, and change order disputes. Payment application and retainage withholding claims.
Mechanic's Lien Enforcement
Lien foreclosure proceedings and lien priority disputes. General contractor, subcontractor, and material supplier lien claims.
Surety Bond Claims
Performance bond and payment bond claims against project sureties. Owner claims against GC performance bonds on failed projects.
Developer Litigation
Breach of purchase agreement, earnest money disputes, and development contract claims. Land acquisition disputes and entitlement litigation.
Commercial Lease Disputes
Landlord and tenant commercial lease enforcement, co-tenancy disputes, and percentage rent claims.
REIT & Real Estate Securities
Real estate securities fraud, REIT governance disputes, and investor claims arising from real estate fund structures.
Real Estate Underwriting

Construction and real estate disputes are highly state-specific. Lien priority rules, notice requirements, and arbitration clause enforceability vary materially across jurisdictions. Our outcome models are calibrated to state-level construction law, not national averages.

Mechanic's lien portfolio financing is a distinct product — we purchase or advance against lien portfolios held by subcontractors and material suppliers, priced against enforcement probability in the relevant state. Portfolio structures are available for lien enforcement law firms with recurring volume.
