Hello all,

I am wondering if anyone has come across turn around or distressed companies and have decided to pass. If so I am interested in these type of opportunities if anyone is willing to pay it forward and pass along leads I would greatly appreciate it.

I'd be very interested in how to best source these as well. I was thinking of reaching out to small business lending managers of local and regional banks. Ask them if they have any underperforming loans they need help with. You would either buy the debt off of them then loan t0 own, or work with the owner to recap the business and take a big equity stake.

Any other ideas on how to source these?
