The CRE Note Investing Capital Stack


Listen Later

This show goes beyond surface-level investing and dives deep into the capital stack behind CRE note deals — from senior debt and mezzanine financing to preferred equity, distressed notes, and non-performing loan acquisitions.

Hosted by Steve Sutton, a commercial real estate strategist focused on value-add and distressed opportunities, this podcast is built for those who want to understand how to control deals without owning everything… and profit from the paper, not just the property.

Each episode unpacks:

  • How to buy, sell, and restructure CRE notes

  • The anatomy of the capital stack (who gets paid first—and why it matters)

  • Distressed debt strategies (NPNs, DPOs, foreclosures, workouts)

  • Creative financing structures used by hedge funds and institutional players

  • How to source off-market note deals and build relationships with asset managers

  • Real case studies breaking down deals step-by-step (numbers, risk, upside)

You’ll also hear interviews with:

  • Note investors and distressed debt buyers

  • Bank asset managers and special servicers

  • Private lenders and capital partners

  • Syndicators using notes to enter deals with less risk

Whether you’re raising capital, restructuring debt, or looking to acquire assets at a discount, this podcast gives you the frameworks, strategies, and insider knowledge to operate like the institutions.

If you want to learn how to position yourself at the top of the capital stack—and get paid first—this show is for you.
