Commercial Opportunity Fund I

Abstract architectural design background

Capitalize on the current CRE Market Dislocation

At Sophinvest, we are lucky to receive a much larger deal-flow than what we can take down on our own account, so we created an investment fund to consumate more opportunities that are too good to pass up on, and share the returns with third party investors like you. The Commercial Opportunity Fund I is a distressed debt fund acquiring non-performing loans secured by commercial real estate. Our strategy for this fund is designed to create value by purchasing assets with significant equity and executing short liquidation cycles to generate attractive returns.

Why Distressed Debt, Why Now?

A significant market shift is underway. With over $1.6 trillion in commercial real estate (CRE) debt maturing by 2026, many loans originated in a low-rate era now face a challenging refinancing environment.

A Compelling Opportunity

Rising interest rates and operating costs mean many property owners cannot meet today’s strict underwriting requirements, leading to a growing wave of distressed CRE loans.

As regulatory pressure mounts, banks and non-bank lenders are increasingly motivated to sell non-performing loans (NPLs) to clean up their balance sheets. The Commercial Opportunity Fund I is positioned to acquire these NPLs, secured by quality CRE, with significant equity in their underlying collaterals.

A Disciplined Process from Acquisition to Liquidation

1. Sourcing

We leverage our established relationships with bank and non-bank lenders to gain access to a consistent deal flow of non-performing CRE loans.

2. Acquisition

Our team conducts rigorous due diligence. We target an acquisition cost of ~65% of the property’s current market value to ensure strong capital protection.

3. Resolution

To accelerate outcomes, we initiate deed-in-lieu negotiations and foreclosure proceedings in parallel, focusing on lender-friendly states.

4. Liquidation

Capital is returned through one of four pathways. Proceeds are then redeployed into new assets to compound returns.
