PRESS RELEASE

Milwaukee, WI – April 2026 – F Street Investments, LLC has officially closed on a $75,000,000 credit facility with CIT Northbridge, a division of First Citizens Bank — tripling our original credit line and extending our maturity by an additional two years.

This closing represents far more than a number on a term sheet. It is a reflection of the operational rigor, financial discipline, and institutional trust that F Street has built over more than two decades in private lending.

CIT Northbridge conducts rigorous semi-annual audits of our financials, leadership, operations, and underwriting. Their decision to significantly expand our facility — and extend our maturity — is a direct endorsement of the platform we have built and the team that runs it.

When F Street’s founder, Scott Lurie, launched the company in 2003 fresh out of college, a $1,000,000 credit line felt like a milestone. Today, this $75 million facility positions F Street to accelerate origination volume, expand into new markets, and continue delivering the kind of risk-adjusted returns our investors have come to expect.

For the first time in F Street’s history, investor capital on our balance sheet has surpassed $100,000,000 — a testament to the trust our investor community places in this platform every single day. That trust is not something we take for granted. It is the foundation of everything we do — and the reason we hold ourselves to the highest standard of transparency, performance, and stewardship.

We are not slowing down. Our mission is to build the most trusted, highest-performing private investment platform in the country. This credit facility is another step in that direction — and our investors are already part of that story.

If you are an existing investor looking to deepen your relationship with F Street — whether through additional capital deployment, a Self-Directed IRA, or our alternative investment platform — our Investor Relations team is ready to help. If you know someone who deserves access to what F Street offers, we encourage you to make the introduction.

PRESS RELEASE

Milwaukee, WI – October 28, 2025 – F Street is proud to announce the successful raise of $30 million for its Private Debt Fund, marking another milestone in our mission to provide investors with access to high-yield, secured private credit opportunities. This latest raise underscores the growing appetite for private credit as investors continue to seek diversification beyond traditional stocks and bonds.

Private credit — once reserved for institutions and ultra-high-net-worth individuals — is rapidly becoming an essential component of a balanced alternative investment portfolio. As banks have tightened lending standards, direct private lenders like F Street are filling the gap, funding real estate and business projects that deliver both community impact and strong, risk-adjusted returns.

With a goal of $24 million, F Street surpassed their raise target considerably for the Private Debt Fund, proving the demand for high-yield interest investments in private lending.

 

PRESS RELEASE

Milwaukee, WI – December 26, 2024 – F Street, a leading alternative investment firm, today announced they raised over $30 million to their Private Debt Fund, a promissory note debt instrument in private lending. Launched in 2009, the fund has consistently delivered a 10% annual return to investors, with monthly interest payments.

With this latest capital infusion, the fund now boasts assets under management exceeding $80 million. This milestone underscores the strong investor confidence in F Street’s investment strategy and its ability to generate superior returns.

“We are thrilled to have secured this significant investment from hundreds of new investors to F Street in our Private Debt Fund,” said Scott Lurie, Founder at F Street. “This funding will enable us to continue our growth trajectory and expand our ability to deploy capital across the real estate investment landscape. We remain committed to delivering exceptional returns to our investors while supporting the growth of our lending services.”

Milwaukee real estate firm F Street Investments secured what it called a “substantial capital infusion” into a fund that loans money for home rehabs.

That money came through Brighton Asset Management, a private investment firm whose team includes former Milwaukee Bucks co-owner Marc Lasry of Avenue Capital Group; Dan Rappaport, the former CEO of the New York Mercantile Exchange; and Joseph Rappaport, director of sales and business development at Sylvan Asset Management, according to an F Street press release. Lasry in April sold his stake in the Milwaukee Bucks.

Dan Rappaport, managing member of Brighton, said the plan is to grow F Street’s existing platform and “explore new investment strategies to scale the business.”

The investment from Brighton goes into an F Street fund that launched in spring with the goal of raising $50 million to provide loans for real estate companies to acquire and rehab homes. Operating under The Hard Money Co. brand, F Street has been providing those types of loans since about 2009.
