Risk Considerations

What could go wrong

Special situations may be illiquid, complex, and speculative. They may be available only to investors meeting applicable eligibility requirements.

Statutory processes, terminology, and available remedies differ by state, county, and municipality. Timelines are uncertain, capital may be committed longer than anticipated, and title or property-condition issues can reduce or eliminate expected outcomes. Independent legal and tax advice is appropriate before participating in any transaction.

Nothing on this page constitutes legal advice or an offer to sell any security. No fixed rate of return is offered or implied.

  3. 03

    Underwrite

    Develop an investment thesis and assess whether the expected opportunity justifies the associated risks.

    Allocate

    Determine appropriate exposure within the broader portfolio or strategy.
