Custom Capital is a vertically-integrated commercial real estate origination platform that connects high-net-worth investors with institutional-quality Absolute NNN (triple net lease) investment opportunities nationwide.
We're not a broker. We're not a developer. We function as a shared family office—sourcing deals, performing full due diligence, assembling equity, coordinating financing, and managing every step from LOI to close. Our members get 100% ownership of cash‑flowing commercial properties with truly zero landlord responsibilities.
Operating remotely with a tech‑driven platform, we outpace traditional brokers with faster execution, better terms, and institutional‑grade processes. Our investments range from $2M–$25M, and we've experienced 200–300% YOY growth with over $350M in transactional value expected this year.
We're building an elite team to match our ambitions.

Qualifications:
5–8 years as a paralegal or legal professional in commercial real estate, with direct experience drafting and negotiating PSAs. NNN, retail, or single‑tenant transaction experience strongly preferred.
