Real estate acquisition + asset repositioning

Source the deal.
Structure the acquisition.
Execute the plan.

I find overlooked real estate, solve the capital and execution problem, and move the asset toward its highest practical use.

01 / Selected executions

Property-level receipts

Every deal earns
its own story.

The names are memorable. The numbers stay literal. Each file shows the friction, the move, and the current chapter without pretending an unfinished deal is finished.

Story 01 / Syracuse, New York

Ten Grand In.
Long Game On.

$10K at close. Trust-held title. A zero-seasoning DSCR refinance recovered the basis while the equity stayed put.

Purchase$100,000
Cash at close$10,000
DSCR refinance~$132,000
Appraised range$162K-$165K
Friction

Owner-occupied, free and clear, and not built for a conventional close.

The structure

Trust-held title and unsecured seller paper cleared the way for first-position DSCR debt.

Current chapter

Basis recovered. Equity retained. Rental cash flow next.

Story 02Ithaca, New York

Seven Acres.
Zero Percent.

A 0% note bought the triplex. The option controls what comes next.

Purchase note$200K
Carry0% / $0 pay
Balloon24 months
Land control7.57 ac + 22 option
The move

Two years with no interest or payments, plus an option on another 22 acres.

Current chapterOperate the triplex. Underwrite the land.
Story 03Syracuse, New York

Down to
the Studs.

Bought for the taxes. Rebuilt for the spread.

Basis$25K
Projected value$270K-$300K
EntryTax-distressed
Capital eventDSCR refinance
The setup + move

Counsel cleared possession. A tax plan held the deal until closing. Then the full-gut scope began.

Current chapterFinish. Appraise. Refinance.

Figures are actual unless marked projected. Supporting records move in direct diligence.

02 / The operating engine

The system beneath the story

No magic trick.
Just repeatable work.

The rental portfolio is evidence. Peak Offer is the acquisition engine. Structure follows the asset; controls carry the execution.

01

Source

Direct-to-seller acquisition work creates opportunities outside the obvious channels.

Paid acquisition / county-level targeting
02

Structure

Price, terms, debt, control, and downside are selected around the asset.

Seller paper / DSCR / creative terms
03

Execute

Written scope, accountable vendors, visible decisions, and a defined capital event move the plan forward.

Renovate / stabilize / refinance
Executed toolkit

Seller financing / purchase-money notes / land trusts / DSCR refinancing / tax workouts / option agreements

Tools selected per deal - not six competing identities.

03 / Measured growth

Built from operating records

The numbers moved.
The discipline stayed boring.

Peak Offer produced $447,539 in 2025 actual business revenue. Current pace and pipeline point to $800K-$1M in 2026. That range is directional, unaudited, and subject to execution. Business revenue only - not property value, transaction volume, or an investor return.

Solid bars are recorded actuals. The hatched band is the 2026 management projection.

04 / Operating controls

Risk reduced by design

No heroics.
Just controls.

The operating infrastructure is built around traceability. Software supports the cadence; accountable people still make the decisions.

01

One source of truth

Every lead, deal, document, owner, and next action stays attached to the transaction.

02

Written execution

Scopes, signatures, deadlines, and material decisions leave an auditable trail.

03

Measured acquisition

Deal flow is targeted and managed at the county level rather than depending on the MLS.

04

Vendor accountability

Scope ownership, budget controls, and documented escalation keep execution visible.

Operating leverage / in build

Scale the judgment.
Automate the drag.

A founder-built, AI-assisted CRM keeps sellers, documents, deadlines, and follow-up in one place. Less admin. More judgment.

Standing operating relationships
  • DSCR lending
  • National title
  • Entity + tax counsel
  • Property management

05 / The operator

Zac Van Heyningen / Chicago

The work gets personal.
The capital never gets casual.

My FP&A and M&A background shapes the work: model downside, track variance, and document decisions.

Founded in 2020. Built in earnest since 2022. Peak Offer is now a focused acquisition and asset-repositioning platform.

Off the clock: Logan Square with Kali and Denver, men's-league hockey, old Hondas, espresso, and Kazu Collective.

Acquisition / bridge / DSCR / special situations

Bring the criteria.
I'll bring the deal-level thinking.

I'm building long-term relationships with lenders and deal-by-deal partners who value a clear basis, documented execution, and a defined capital plan.
