M&A · Asset management · United States
I advise on buying and selling privately held U.S. companies. For family offices and funds, I manage assets and represent the owner inside the business. Twenty years running plants and construction before I ever structured a deal.
Who it's for
Owners of privately held companies who are selling, buying, or restructuring equity.
Family offices that need an operator inside the asset — reporting to them, not to the contractor.
Funds that need an operating partner for a portfolio asset — someone with real operating experience.
Services
Sourcing, diligence, valuation, and structuring the purchase or sale of a privately held company — through negotiation to close.
Zimin Management: owner's representation, project and construction management, independent contractor oversight, and reporting straight to the owner.
Zimin Capital: on select deals I commit my own capital alongside operators and co-investors — deal by deal, never through a blind-pool fund.
Process
What you have, what you want, and by when.
Numbers, equipment, team, and the real state of things.
How to build the deal so that it actually closes.
Negotiation, documents, and support through signing.
Hands-on operational involvement, not a handoff.
A five-minute questionnaire. I reply personally within two business days. Everything stays confidential.
