NAVASOTA, TX / ACCESS Newswire / July 8, 2026 / Raises.com is pleased to announce the successful closing of the inaugural acquisition of an operator-led roll-up platform founded by Cody Sechelski, with the controlled buyout of a profitable Texas-based heating, ventilation, and air conditioning services business. The transaction marks the first completed acquisition in what is intended to be a multi-deal roll-up of family-operated service businesses across Texas and the broader Gulf Coast. The transaction was funded by a multi-tranche capital structure that combined an institutional senior credit facility with a structured seller-financing instrument designed to preserve long-term founder participation. Tre Brown, Head of Capital Markets at Raises.com, worked closely with Mr. Sechelski over the course of the engagement to negotiate and structure an equity-light transaction that allowed the buyer to acquire control of the platform with minimal sponsor cash equity at closing, source the senior lender, and architect the seller-financing instrument that ultimately enabled the closing. The buyer was originally onboarded to the Raises.com platform by Keneil Clarke, the firm's first point of contact for incoming operator-led acquirers, who introduced Mr. Sechelski to the advisory team. Tre Brown, Head of Capital Markets at Raises.com, served as the buyer's deal-structuring and capital advisor throughout the engagement and personally led the transaction from initial lender outreach through closing. Raises.com, the capital advisory firm built on the founding vision of Natu Myers, supported the engagement with its broader capital-markets platform and lender relationships. Transaction terms were privately negotiated.
