Five paths, one outcome

Whatever brought you to this page, there's likely a structure for it.

01

Off-Market Acquisition

You want out of a property, or the business tied to it. We buy commercial and industrial real estate directly — no listing, no showings, no marketing period for your competitors or employees to notice.

02

Sale-Leaseback

Keep operating out of the facility you've built your business around. We purchase the real estate and lease it back to you on terms you help set, converting a fixed asset into working capital.

03

Bridge & Working Capital

Payroll, a growth opportunity, an inventory buy, an unexpected obligation — short-term capital secured against real estate you already own, structured around what you actually need.

04

Bank Payoff & Distress Relief

A maturing note, a covenant default, or pressure from a lender that's stopped being patient. We move fast enough to resolve the obligation before it becomes a forced sale.

Why owners work with us

We're the last call you make, not the first of many.

Most real estate transactions run through brokers, appraisers, loan committees, and months of marketing. When you need certainty — or discretion — that process works against you. We buy as principal, with our own capital, and we're built to move at the speed the situation actually requires.

  • Principal capital. We're the buyer — not a broker shopping your deal to a database. Primarily self-funded, with credit facilities available when a deal calls for it, so financing rarely holds up a close.
  • Real discretion. No public listing, no site signage, no marketing to your customers or competitors.
  • Flexible structure. Outright purchase, sale-leaseback, joint venture, or secured bridge debt — whatever fits.
  • Regional focus. Deep familiarity with Southwest industrial, energy-adjacent, and commercial real estate.
  • Built for speed. Preliminary offers in days. Closings set by your calendar, not a committee's.

    Property & Financials Review

    We look at the real estate, the operations if relevant, and any existing debt to understand what's actually possible.

  3. 3

    Offer & Structure

    A written offer with a real structure behind it — purchase, leaseback, or bridge — built around what you need out of it.

  4. 4

    Close On Your Timeline

Portrait of Justin Dodd, founder and principal of 5 Arrows Group

The Principal

5 Arrows Group is a private investment group with more than 10 years in commercial and industrial real estate, led by Justin Dodd.

Justin Dodd

Founder & Principal, 5 Arrows Group

Justin founded 5 Arrows Group to give owners of commercial and industrial real estate a direct, principal buyer — someone who can move on the owner's timeline instead of a broker's marketing calendar.

He also leads NRG Realty Group, the commercial real estate brokerage he founded in 2015 to serve the shale-play markets. Since founding NRG, he's brokered over 400 office and industrial transactions for energy-related clients across every major U.S. shale play, valued at more than $300 million. Before NRG, he worked in business development and brokerage for a turnkey energy-sector brokerage, development, and construction firm, managing client projects through acquisition, design, and construction. That vantage point — seeing deals from both the brokerage side and the principal-buyer side — shapes how 5 Arrows Group underwrites and closes.

A lifelong Texan, Justin grew up visiting well sites with his father, who worked in exploration and production — trips that shaped a lasting interest in the oil and gas industry he still carries today. He's a graduate of Baylor University (Real Estate & Finance) and lives with his wife, Casey, and their kids.

Common questions

What owners usually want to know first.

Will my employees or customers find out before I'm ready?

No. There's no listing, no signage, and no marketing period. Conversations stay private, and we're glad to sign an NDA before you share any details, if that makes the first call easier.

How is this different from listing with a broker?

A broker markets your property to find a buyer and takes a commission for it. We're the buyer — no listing, no showings, no marketing period, and no commission to negotiate around.

Do you pay cash, or do you need bank financing approval first?

We're primarily self-funded, with credit facilities available when a deal calls for it. That means we're rarely waiting on a lender's timeline to close.

What if I already have another offer, or I'm in the middle of a bank situation?

Tell us where things stand. We've closed deals specifically to resolve a maturing note or lender pressure before it became a forced sale — timing like that is exactly what we're built for.

What kinds of deals do you do besides an outright purchase?

Outright purchase, sale-leaseback, joint venture, or secured bridge debt — whichever structure actually fits what you need out of it.

Is there any cost or obligation to talk?

None. A conversation costs nothing and doesn't commit you to anything.

Confidential & no obligation

Tell us about the property.

Every conversation starts private and stays that way unless you decide otherwise. There's no cost, and no obligation, to find out what's possible — and we're glad to sign an NDA before you share any details, if that makes the first conversation easier.
