About Us
Eppler Capital Funds was founded in March 2023 by Craig Eppler in Philadelphia, PA. While working as a Senior Portfolio Manager in the investment advisory space, Craig identified a significant unmet need among retirees, pre-retirees, and other investors seeking reliable solutions for generating consistent income in traditional markets. Drawing on his successful personal experience investing in private markets and real estate, Craig envisioned combining these two areas with a new offering.
This vision led to the creation of the firm’s flagship Promissory Note Fund, which provides investors with a fixed return, paid monthly, over a customizable term. The fund quickly gained traction, addressing the critical need for dependable income that many investors sought.
In the first couple of years since operation, Craig received frequent inquiries from clients and professional contacts interested in participating on the equity side of the private deals he was underwriting. In response, Eppler Capital Funds launched its first equity offering, the Acquisition Entrepreneur Fund, in the spring of 2025, which successfully closed in September 2025. Guided by the same principles of discipline, consistency, and risk management, the fund provided investors with ongoing cash flow and the potential for meaningful upside at the end of the investment term.
Beyond fund offerings, Eppler Capital Funds has also completed direct investments, including the acquisition of a medical office property, in Sewell, NJ. The firm expects to offer additional equity and direct investment opportunities in the future as attractive, risk-adjusted opportunities arise.
This dual-model approach has set the foundation for the future of Eppler Capital Funds. The firm remains committed to its flagship Promissory Note Fund, while also offering timely alternative investments designed to capitalize on opportunities in specific sectors. Eppler Capital Funds aims to be your trusted partner for unique, alternative investments that deliver strong, long-term returns.
