Boxwood Partners Acts as Exclusive Advisor to reQuire, LLC in Sale to L2 Capital

RICHMOND, VA (PRWEB) February 23, 2014

Boxwood Partners, LLC, is pleased to announce the sale of reQuire, LLC, to Radnor, PA-based L2 Capital Partners. Acquisition financing for the transaction was provided by Chevy Chase, MD-based Farragut Capital Partners.

Boxwood Partners acted as the exclusive advisor to reQuire, LLC with respect to the transaction. The reQuire transaction was led by Managing Directors J. Patrick Galleher and Bobby Morris as well as Associate Brian Alas. Terms were not disclosed.

Headquartered in Virginia Beach, Virginia, reQuire is the largest provider of mortgage lien release tracking services and title curative services in the United States. The Company’s core value proposition is to help land owners in assuring that they are not plagued with problems caused by unreleased mortgage liens when they attempt to sell or refinance their homes in the future. This service provides collateral benefits to all of those involved in the settlement—lenders, title insurance companies, title insurance underwriters, and settlement companies. reQuire performs these services through proprietary Internet and patent-based release tracking service.

“reQuire’s industry-leading platform simplifies a complicated process for all stakeholders of a real estate transaction,” said Patrick Galleher, Managing Director at Boxwood. “The Management team has shown the ability to execute the Company’s growth strategies and is well-positioned to continue that growth with their new partners in L2.”

reQuire marks the third transaction that Boxwood Partners has closed in the financial and real estate technology sector, following transactions with Dorsey, Wright, & Associates and Digital Risk.

Daniel Morris, the Founder and CEO of reQuire, said, “As the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau’s (CFPB’s) regulatory reach and enforcement hits the title insurance industry, there has never been a better opportunity for reQuire’s mortgage lien release tracking services. We are confident our service and technology is well-positioned for continued growth. In addition, reQuire will enter new markets domestically in the coming months while also rolling out additional product offerings. We are very excited about our partnership with L2. They are experienced investors and come with proven track record.”

Bob Levine, the founder of L2 Capital, said “We are excited to partner with Daniel and the reQuire team to help facilitate further growth in the coming years. We believe the Company has established themselves as the leader within their niche industry and provide a valuable service to the stakeholders of a real estate transaction. We’d also like to thank the Boxwood team, as their efforts were instrumental in bringing this transaction to a close.”
