What We Look For

Aginsky Capital is actively looking at investments and acquisitions and we would be interested in exploring collaboration opportunities with you, whether you are 1) an entrepreneur looking for a capital partner, 2) an owner of an established business looking for an exit, or 3) an investor looking for unique investment opportunities. We are not a fund and thus, are not mandated to sell businesses we acquire. We go at risk with our own sweat and capital. Below you will find details of our investment criteria for both real estate and business investments.
