Private asset sales & introductions
Exceptional assets.
Considered connections.
A private approach to presentation, qualified interest and purposeful introductions – for owners of significant assets and the buyers who have a reason to meet them.
Three ways to begin
Acquire
Prospective buyers with a defined interest apply for access, see approved opportunities and move to a confidential exchange when there is a reason to.
Discuss an acquisitionOffer
Owners, authorised representatives and specialist dealers bring an asset with a clear objective. We agree the presentation, the disclosure plan and the terms in writing.
Submit an assetIntroduce
Professionals with relevant relationships submit documented introductions. Attribution and remuneration are agreed before expectations are created.
Make a professional introductionCurrent private sales

What we check – and what we do not
Read our standardsAuthority to sell
Ownership or mandate documents are checked against their source before an asset is presented. Each listing shows which checks were completed, when, and by whom.
Who you are dealing with
Members are reviewed before access. Identity, sanctions and PEP checks are documented steps, not a box that ticks itself.
The limits
Checks reduce uncertainty. They do not guarantee authenticity, title, condition, value or completion – buyers use their own advisers and specialist inspections.
Fees are agreed before the work begins
Access for approved buyers is free of charge. For owners, the remuneration is defined in the written mandate for the particular asset – a fixed fee, a success-related fee or an expressly defined combination – before any introduction is made. Dealers and brokers who present assets regularly hold a Professional Membership.

Who can join?
Prospective buyers with a defined interest, owners and their authorised representatives, specialist dealers and brokers, and professionals with relevant relationships. Every application is reviewed; access can be declined.
What does it cost?
Buyer access is free. Owners pay per asset under the written mandate. Dealers and brokers presenting assets regularly hold a Professional Membership at EUR 790 a year or EUR 79 a month.
How is my information protected?
Details are released in stages. Exact locations, identities and documents are shared only after qualification, a confidentiality agreement and the owner's approval. Data-room links are personal and expire after one minute.
Does PRIVATIO hold the purchase price?
No. Buyers and sellers contract and settle directly, with their own advisers. PRIVATIO never receives purchase prices.
Who is responsible for my case?
A named relationship manager, visible in your account, coordinates each case.
Only what matters.
Bring us the asset. Tell us the objective.
The first conversation establishes what you wish to achieve, what information is available and whether PRIVATIO is the appropriate route.
