Sale-Leaseback
Keep the footprint. Mobilize the capital. Grow your business.
Our Sale-Leaseback program helps operators use their owned real estate to fund their growth.
What is a Sale-Leaseback?
A sale-leaseback allows a business to sell its real estate while continuing to operate from the property under a long-term lease. It unlocks capital tied up in owned real estate and provides flexible funding for growth, expansion, or recapitalization without creating new debt, making it an extremely popular funding method for multi-unit operators who own their real estate.
Why Execute a Sale-Leaseback?
Access Capital
Turn the value of your property into cash you can use for growth, expansion, or operations.
Avoid Debt
Raise capital without relying on restrictive loans or additional financing.
Stay in Place
Keep operating from the same location under a long-term lease with no interruption.
How it Works
1. Develop a Lease
We help you develop a marketable lease for your business, allowing you to set terms that support your operational goals.
2. Sell Property
We find a buyer for your land and building and sell it to investors, while you continue operating on a lease.
3. Invest Proceeds
Use the proceeds of the sale to fuel your growth, whether by opening new locations, paying off debt or investing into your business.
