Letters of Capital Commitment

by a searcher from Emory University - Goizueta Business School

I am starting a self-funded search and have lined up a few investors who have worked with me in the past. Does anyone have a template for a letter from investors that can be used to demonstrate capital commitments prior to having a deal in hand? I would like to share this with brokers and lenders as I start to develop deal flow. Thank you!

Thanks for asking this question. It's one I have been curious about as well, as the first broker I reached out to (just starting my search), seemed skeptical. I've gotten a range of answers from different searchers. Some got a Letter of Capital Commitment and some didn't. But those that had the letter never ended up having to use it. Offering it seemed to be enough in their experience.
