The Opportunity: Micro-Balance Commercial Real Estate Niche
Kirkland Capital Group focuses on micro-balance commercial real estate, targeting deals ranging from $200,000 to $1.5 million. These transactions present untapped potential for higher returns without the same risks typically associated with larger commercial loans. By providing short-term financing solutions, we enable property investors to secure funds for purchasing or improving properties, to create value and stabilize commercial properties before transitioning to longer term financing.
