For any owner-operator
Unlock the capital trapped in the real estate you operate from.
You already own the building you operate from. A sale-leaseback converts that equity into working capital while you keep occupancy on terms you set.
What a sale-leaseback does
- Unlock trapped capital
- Redeploy into operations
- Off balance sheet
- Retain occupancy
- Lease terms you set
What it looks like in practice
Net proceeds to the operator
The building is usually worth more as a leased investment asset than it is as a line on your balance sheet. That difference is what you take out.
The lease term you sign
Typically ten to twenty years with renewal options. You write it before a buyer sees the deal, because you are the tenant afterwards.
Signed to funded in days
Once the lease is agreed and the buyer is identified, closing is a real estate transaction rather than a business sale. It moves faster than owners expect.
By operator type
- Medical and dental
Physician groups, surgical centers, dental and veterinary platforms. Capital for expansion or a partner buyout.
- Industrial and distribution
Manufacturers, distributors and logistics operators. Capital trapped in an owned facility, released without moving.
How it works
Confidential valuation of the real estate
What the building is worth as an investment asset, separate from what your business is worth. Nothing goes to market and nobody is contacted.
Structure the lease you want to sign
Term, rent, escalations and options. You are the tenant afterwards, so these are your terms to set before a buyer ever sees the deal.
Marketed to a named buyer pool
Not posted publicly. Taken to buyers who specifically want the credit and the lease structure you have signed.
Close, and you stay in the building
Proceeds to you, occupancy unchanged, on the lease you wrote. Your customers and your staff see no difference.
Start a confidential conversation
Who sees this: the practice lead only. No listing goes to market, and nothing is shared with your employees, lenders or competitors without your instruction.
