Who are your typical clients?
We advise on real estate and infrastructure projects ranging from $5M to $350M+.
This includes multifamily developments, mixed-use properties, industrial and logistics facilities, office and commercial spaces, hospitality assets, senior housing, and large-scale infrastructure projects such as transportation, energy, and utilities. Our experience spans ground-up development, acquisitions, refinancing, portfolio transactions, and even distressed situations requiring capital restructuring.
What types of projects does Magnus Fiscus advise on?
A capital advisory firm helps sponsors and developers structure and secure the right mix of debt and equity financing for their projects.
At Magnus Fiscus, this means acting as an outsourced finance desk. We don’t just connect you with lenders or investors—we help you analyze capital needs, build financial models, identify potential funding partners, negotiate terms, and close transactions. Our independence ensures our advice is always aligned with client objectives, not tied to institutional agendas.
What does a capital advisory firm do?
General Questions
We advise on refinancing maturing loans, replacing expensive debt, and restructuring equity positions to provide liquidity. Recapitalization strategies may allow sponsors to free equity for new projects while retaining ownership in existing assets. By optimizing the capital stack, we ensure projects remain competitive and financially sustainable even in shifting markets.
Do you assist with refinancing and recapitalization?
Yes. We connect sponsors with institutional equity partners, private equity firms, and family offices.
Our equity advisory includes joint venture structuring, preferred equity solutions, and co-investment partnerships. For developers and sponsors, this means not only sourcing the right equity but also ensuring alignment of return expectations, control provisions, and long-term objectives. By leveraging our investor network, we help clients attract the right partners for complex and capital-intensive projects.
Can you help with equity financing?
We help structure and source debt that fits your project’s scale and strategy.
Our network spans banks, private lenders, and institutional capital providers, giving us access to a wide range of solutions, including senior debt, mezzanine financing, construction loans, bridge loans, and refinancing strategies. We tailor every structure to balance cost of capital with project objectives, whether you’re building from the ground up or repositioning an asset.
How do you help with debt financing?
Services and Process
Our role includes financial modeling, capital structuring, sourcing lenders and investors, preparing investor presentations, negotiating term sheets, and guiding transactions through closing. Unlike brokers who may step aside after sourcing, Magnus Fiscus stays engaged at every stage to ensure the financing process is strategic, efficient, and aligned with client goals.
How involved are you during the transaction process?
This range covers a broad spectrum, from single-asset developments (such as a $25M multifamily project) to portfolio-level financings in the hundreds of millions. By maintaining this focus, we deliver expertise tailored to projects that require significant but strategic capital structuring.
Do you only work on large transactions?
Our fees are structured to align with client outcomes.
Typically, this includes a retainer plus a success-based fee at closing. The exact structure depends on transaction size and complexity. This model ensures we remain fully aligned with our clients—we only succeed when you do.
How are your fees structured?
Ideally, as early as possible.
Engaging us during the planning phase ensures the capital strategy is aligned with the business plan and market conditions. Early engagement allows us to advise on financial feasibility, capital stack design, and investor positioning, which makes execution smoother and avoids costly missteps later. That said, we also step in mid-process for sponsors needing refinancing, recapitalization, or restructuring support.
At what stage should we engage Magnus Fiscus?
Engagement and Fees
The first step is a consultation.
During this call, we’ll review your project, assess financing requirements, and outline preliminary capital strategies. From there, we tailor an advisory process—whether it’s debt placement, equity sourcing, or complete capital structuring.
How do we begin working with Magnus Fiscus?
