Windmill Capital · Corporate & Property Finance Advisory
Relationships first. Results follow.
A boutique advisory practice connecting ambitious projects with the right capital — built for complex, time-critical situations where clarity, creativity and deal-craft matter most.
What we stand for
Most of our work comes from people we've backed before. We earn trust first and keep it — long after settlement.
Independent advice with no product to push. We tell you what we'd do in your shoes — not what pays us.
Relationships and integrity aren't soft. They're precisely what gets a deal closed on the right terms.
How we work
Every mandate begins with the same discipline — find the true constraint, then design the capital around it.
Define the real constraint — time, covenant, equity, approvals, pre-sales, or the sponsor story.
Debt, mezzanine, preferred equity or JV — the right capital, on the right terms.
A competitive, targeted process: curated counterparties, clean data, decisive timelines.
Term sheets you can live with. Documentation that protects you. Stakeholder alignment that lasts.
The relationship outlasts the transaction.
How we structure capital
Every project has its own capital geometry. We bring together the right mix of debt and equity — senior to subordinated, preferred to sponsor — and structure it to perform under pressure.
Illustrative tranches. Real capital structures are tailored to each transaction.

Independence is the point. With no balance sheet to push and no product to sell, our only incentive is the outcome that's right for you. We run competitive, targeted processes and design capital structures that hold up under pressure.
