Answers for investors, financial professionals, trustees, and other authorized representatives exploring potential liquidity.
Selected holdings may be considered for purchase by Baron De Biltmore, LLC, an affiliated buying entity. AIL supports the review and transaction coordination process. AIL is not a broker-dealer or investment adviser, and a review does not guarantee an offer.
Either approach is welcome. Investors can begin directly or involve a financial advisor, broker, attorney, trustee, or other authorized representative. We coordinate communications according to the owner’s instructions and applicable firm requirements.
We review non-traded REITs, DST interests, private funds, limited partnerships, private placements, non-traded BDCs, interval funds, and other illiquid alternatives. Purchase interest depends on the specific holding, pricing, purchaser eligibility, and transfer requirements.
To research a holding, explore our REIT Directory, find trust programs in the DST Directory, or browse selected funds and partnerships in the Private Fund & Partnership Directory . Inclusion does not establish buyer availability or transfer eligibility.
Start with the investment name, approximate shares or units, and account type. Sensitive personal information and account documents are not needed for an initial discussion. You can contact AIL with basic holding details. If further review is warranted, we’ll explain which supporting documents are required and how to submit them.
Yes. Investors and authorized representatives can begin with a list of investment names and approximate position sizes. Each holding is evaluated individually, and purchase interest or terms may differ between positions. Representatives should obtain appropriate authorization before submitting client documents.
No. The affiliated purchaser may decline a holding because of pricing, investment condition, transfer restrictions, or other factors. AIL does not guarantee a purchase, another buyer, or an alternative exit.
Not necessarily. An offer may be below statement value, reported NAV, or original cost. It reflects the purchaser’s assessment of the holding and proposed purchase terms rather than an independent valuation.
Our guide to NAV, capital accounts, tax basis, and sale price explains why these figures can differ.
Proposed purchase terms identify the price and applicable fees or deductions so the owner can evaluate expected net proceeds. Issuer, transfer agent, custodian, or other third-party charges may also apply, depending on the holding and account. Review how each charge is allocated before signing a purchase agreement.
No. An inquiry or review does not commit the owner to sell. The owner and their advisors can consider any proposed terms before deciding whether to enter into a purchase agreement.
Begin with basic holding details and omit account numbers, Social Security numbers, and other sensitive information. Representatives can also leave out client names initially. Before sending supporting documents, confirm the submission method with AIL and obtain any required authorization.
Review timing depends on the investment and available information. After an offer is accepted, completion also depends on documents, signatures, any required Medallion Signature Guarantee, and issuer or custodian processing. There is no guaranteed completion date.
AIL helps coordinate the required documentation and transfer steps with the owner, authorized representatives, and relevant parties. Transfer and payment follow the purchase agreement, subject to applicable approvals and requirements.
