➥ Handling distressed assets is not suitable for everyone; it requires specific skills and a high tolerance for risk and complexity. Both Ace and Jaryd prefer to avoid distressed assets, focusing instead on stable, synergistic acquisitions that align with their lifestyle goals.
➥ Being creative with deal structures can lead to better outcomes. Traditional methods taught in business schools can be limiting. Innovative approaches, such as consulting for equity or leveraging soft assets, can unlock hidden value and create win-win situations for both buyers and sellers.
