Press release

Weston, FL – November 6, 2025 – In a bold move set to transform the small business exit landscape, Notecrest Capital today announced its nationwide expansion to all 50 states, just months after its January 2025 founding. This specialized debt fund is poised to disrupt an overlooked asset class by providing immediate liquidity for seller-financed notes–those essential but often illiquid instruments that arise when business owners bridge funding gaps for buyers.

Drawing on over 40 years of combined expertise in hard-to-finance assets, founders Travis Goad previously of Pelorus Capital Group and Abby Shemesh of Amerinote Xchange have engineered a platform that combines institutional-grade underwriting, proprietary sourcing, and AI-enhanced analysis. Their deep-rooted experience in secondary debt markets and specialized lending has positioned Notecrest Capital as a pioneer, offering sellers not just cash but innovative hybrid structures that blend upfront payments with participation in the fund’s potential growth.

“This expansion marks a pivotal moment for small business owners navigating complex exits in today’s economic climate,” said Abby Shemesh, Head of Acquisitions at Notecrest Capital. “With tightening credit and evolving incentives like the recently enacted SBA Standard Operating Procedure (SOP 50 10 8), seller notes are surging. We’re here to unlock that trapped value swiftly, whether sellers want to simplify their post-exit life or redirect capital into dynamic opportunities. Our hybrid model turns a static debt instrument into an intriguing stake in a diversified portfolio, potentially yielding compelling returns.”

What makes Notecrest Capital a game-changer is its ability to cater to all business types–from retail shops to service providers–across the entire U.S. Sellers can access liquidity through all-cash offers or hybrids that promise enhanced overall value, all while eliminating ongoing administrative burdens as the fund assumes note servicing.

The company’s streamlined process ensures rapid results:

• Submit Your Note: Complete a brief online form with essential details like balance, terms, repayment history, and collateral–no commitment required.
• Receive Your Offer: Get a customized, transparent bid in 2-5 business days, with options for full or partial purchases in cash or hybrid formats.
• Close and Get Paid: Finalize in days/weeks, with funds wired and shares issued where applicable, freeing sellers from risk and hassle.

As small businesses drive nearly half of U.S. GDP, this innovation arrives amid forecasts of Federal Reserve shifts and heightened M&A activity in the sub-$20 million “Main Street” segment. By injecting liquidity into a fragmented market, Notecrest Capital empowers sellers to seize new horizons without the drag of illiquid assets.
