The Owner Decision Matrix

Before you sell, diagnose.

A structured diagnostic for evaluating Sell, Hold, or Recap against the asset, the capital stack, and the owner's specific position. Hudson opens every engagement with it.

Three paths. One diagnosis.

Sell

When market timing, asset condition, and ownership circumstance align toward disposition. Hudson runs the 6-Phase Process.

Hold

When the asset is undervalued, the timing is wrong, or operational lift remains. Hudson advises against transacting.

Recap

When the right answer is partial liquidity — recapitalize, refinance, restructure ownership. Hudson coordinates with capital sources.

How the Matrix works.

The Matrix is not a calculator. It is a structured diagnostic that evaluates four variables against the owner's specific position:

Asset position — current performance, deferred maintenance, capital needs, market positioning
Ownership circumstance — life stage, partner dynamics, succession plan, tax position
Capital stack — debt maturity, prepay penalty, equity composition, basis
Market timing — current submarket conditions, comparable transactions, buyer depth at the asset's segment

The diagnosis produces a recommended path. The owner decides. Hudson clarifies.

"You decide. We clarify." is the operating principle, not a tagline. The diagnosis recommends. The owner decides.
