Unity Acquisitions
Buyer services — Family offices

Direct acquisition sourcing for family offices

Curated, off-market opportunities — long-term holds, generational assets, and founder-led transitions — sourced with full confidentiality and without an auction calendar.

Direct, not intermediated

Hold-period assets without a process premium

Family offices often want operating companies they can own for a decade or more. Those files rarely survive a marketed process intact. Unity originates privately against a written mandate and keeps distribution limited.

Founder succession conversations are the largest source. The owner wants a counterpart who will keep the team and the name — not twelve bids on a clock.

Working model

From family thesis to a private introduction

01

Write what you will own

Sector, earnings, geography, management posture, and whether you want control, partnership, or a recap.

02

Source founder conversations

Wealth counsel, CPAs, and owner outreach surface transitions that have not hired a banker.

03

Protect both names

NDA before identity. Nothing identifiable moves without consent at that stage.

04

Route the overlap

When several family-office and PE mandates fit, review order follows membership, then fit.

Long-hold posture

The conversation can stay bilateral. Earnouts, rollovers, and family continuity terms stay available.

Quiet distribution

Introductions are not blasted across a buyer list. Exclusivity is a written arrangement on that file.

Lower middle market

The $1M–$50M EBITDA corridor is where relationship sourcing still beats an auction.

For acquirers

Who sees off-market deals first?

When several qualified buy-side mandates fit the same off-market opportunity, review order follows membership.

Not a public auction. Mandate-fit scoring still applies inside each tier.

Name the company you will hold

If the thesis is specific enough to originate against, Unity will source to it.
