Pre-acquisition expenses in self funded search?
Have you ever seen a scenario in a self-funded search where the main challenge is not having personal capital to cover the initial $50–100K in pre-acquisition expenses (diligence, legal, etc.), and investors step in to provide that early capital — with the option to invest in the deal once it closes (similar to a traditional search setup)? Unfortunately, I don’t have the funds right now to cover that personally.
