The phrase "affair facts" is not correct and does not convey a clear meaning in written English.

Example: "The investigation revealed several affair facts that were previously unknown to the public."
Alternatives: "details of the affair" or "facts about the affair".

Typically, truthmaker maximalists will introduce states of affairs or facts to serve as the required truthmakers: totality states of affairs can serve as truthmakers for negative existentials (see Armstrong 2004: 72 5); the state of affairs of the ball's being red, not the red ball itself, is the truthmaker for 'the ball is red' (see Armstrong 1997 115 66).

One ontological role for states of affairs and facts is to be the primary bearers of modality.
Finally, states of affairs, unlike facts, are commonly said to last or endure, whereas "Sachverhalte" do not last or endure.
Most philosophers would classify the sorts of entities just mentioned (properties, states of affairs, and facts) as abstract.
