What if the public markets represent only a fraction of the opportunity?

According to the latest J.P. Morgan Guide to the Markets, there are roughly 18,000 U.S. companies generating more than $100 million in annual revenue that are privately held, compared with roughly 3,000 public companies.

That means approximately 86% of sizable U.S. businesses operate outside the public markets.

These are established companies that still need capital to expand, refinance debt, acquire competitors, and invest in growth.

For investors, this highlights the scale of the private market and the role that private credit, direct lending, and specialized financing can play in accessing opportunities beyond traditional public markets.

The private markets aren't just an alternative. They're the majority.

Raising capital is about more than finding an investor.

For capital raisers, one of the biggest challenges is finding the right investors for a particular opportunity. Building relationships, communicating the value of an investment, and finding alignment between an investor’s goals and a project’s needs all play a role.

At Eppler Capital Funds, we understand the challenges that come with securing the right capital and structuring financing around each opportunity.

First-Lien vs. Second-Lien Debt: Why Does Position Matter?
When multiple loans are secured by the same property, the order of those claims matters.

First-lien debt has the primary claim against the collateral. If the borrower defaults and the property is sold, the first-lien lender generally has priority in receiving proceeds.

Second-lien debt comes behind the first lien. Because the lender has a lower priority claim, it generally carries greater risk.

For borrowers, second-lien financing can provide additional capital without replacing an existing first mortgage. For lenders, understanding lien position is essential to evaluating collateral, risk, and potential recovery.

At Eppler Capital Funds, we provide asset-based financing backed by real estate and other collateral, with a focus on structuring solutions around each borrower’s needs.

The takeaway: In secured lending, it’s not just about how much debt exists. It’s also about where that debt sits.

Strong real estate investments aren’t just about how much you can borrow. They’re about whether the property can support the debt.

That’s where Debt Service Coverage Ratio (DSCR) comes in.

DSCR measures a property’s ability to cover its annual debt obligations:

DSCR = Net Operating Income Ă· Annual Debt Service

A few key takeaways:
• Above 1.0x: The property generates enough income to cover its debt payments
• Higher DSCR: Provides a greater cushion against changes in income or expenses
• Lower DSCR: Can signal greater risk and less flexibility

For investors and lenders, DSCR provides an important lens for evaluating the sustainability of real estate financing.

At Eppler Capital Funds, we believe understanding the fundamentals behind a deal is essential to making informed investment decisions.

In finance, numbers matter. But relationships are built on something harder to measure: trust.

In this clip, Craig Eppler shares why trust has remained at the center of his approach to business and investing, and why strong relationships can be just as important as strong fundamentals.

At Eppler Capital Funds, we believe successful partnerships are built over time through transparency, consistency, and doing what you say you will do.

Because when it comes to long-term relationships, trust is king.

Tax efficiency can be just as important as investment returns.
Section 1031 of the tax code allows real estate investors to defer capital gains taxes when they exchange one qualifying property for another, potentially allowing more of their proceeds to remain invested and compound over time.

A few key considerations:
• Reinvest proceeds into another qualifying property
• Exchange across property types, such as office to land or industrial to multifamily
• Follow strict 45-day identification and 180-day completion timelines
• Preserve wealth across generations, as inherited assets may receive a step-up in basis

For investors building a real estate portfolio, understanding tax strategy can be an important part of long-term planning.

At Eppler Capital Funds, we believe informed investors look beyond the transaction itself and consider how each decision fits into a broader wealth strategy.

Financial goals are easier to achieve when they move from intentions to action.

Whether you're building an emergency fund, saving for a major purchase, or investing for the future, setting specific and measurable goals can help turn long-term ambitions into manageable steps.

At Eppler Capital Funds, we believe the same principles that guide personal financial planning, such as discipline, clarity, and a long-term perspective, are important when thinking about investing.

What financial goal are you working toward?

A $1 million property securing a $650,000 loan represents a 65% Loan-to-Value (LTV) ratio.

So why does that number matter?

LTV helps investors understand how much of an asset's value is supporting a loan. In this example, the remaining $350,000 equity cushion provides an additional layer of protection between the lender and the underlying property.

At Eppler Capital Funds, LTV is one of several factors we consider when evaluating real estate-backed investments. Collateral, lien position, loan structure, and repayment strategy all play a role in understanding the risk and potential of an opportunity.

The return matters. But so does what stands behind it.
