44 Oak Capital, a vertically integrated private debt and equity firm, announced Oct. 16 the expansion of its commercial real estate finance platform, including the launch of its private equity fund focused on multifamily and hospitality acquisitions across the United States.
Since its founding in 2022, the firm has originated more than $5 billion in commercial and residential loans. The company offers commercial real estate financing, including bridge and permanent financing for commercial properties, as well as residential investment loans for fix and flip projects, ground-up construction and rental properties.
The newly launched private equity fund prioritizes exceptional returns for accredited investors through the sourcing and acquisition of value-add commercial real estate investments. The fund focuses primarily on hotel and multifamily properties in select metropolitan areas, with an emphasis on creating vibrant and inclusive communities through strategic property improvements and management.
“We built 44 Oak Capital to provide reliable and competitive deals and capital to commercial and residential real estate investors,” said Frank Muradov, chief executive officer at 44 Oak Capital. “Our entrepreneurial approach combined with institutional execution allows us to deliver custom financing solutions that help our clients succeed in today’s dynamic real estate market.”
Muradov has more than 15 years of investment management and operations experience to 44 Oak Capital, having previously originated over $3 billion in debt and equity deals throughout his career. Before founding 44 Oak Capital, he served as chief operating officer at Park Rock Capital and senior vice president in investor relations at Veloce Capital.
To support its growing network of mortgage and commercial brokers, realtors, lawyers, and real estate professionals, 44 Oak Capital has developed FundingTape.com, an AI-powered turn-key white label platform. This allows brokers to access 44 Oak Capital’s lending platform for quicker processing and more efficient deal flow.
