Sell Your Property, Stay Put
The Benefits of a Sale-Leaseback for Owner-Users
For business owners who own their real estate, a sale-leaseback can be a strategic way to unlock capital without disrupting operations. By selling the property and leasing it back, an owner-user can free up funds while maintaining full control of the space.
Why Consider a Sale-Leaseback?
- Access Capital for Growth – Instead of tying up cash in real estate, businesses can reinvest in expansion, equipment, or debt reduction.
- Tax Efficiency – Lease payments are typically deductible as a business expense, providing potential tax benefits.
- Reduce Market Risk – Selling eliminates exposure to market fluctuations, interest rate changes, and refinancing uncertainty.
- Maximize Property Value – If market conditions are favorable, a sale-leaseback allows an owner to capitalize on strong valuations.
- Long-Term Stability – Most agreements offer extended lease terms, ensuring operational continuity.
A sale-leaseback is not the right solution for every owner, but for those looking to improve liquidity while retaining control of their property, it can be a powerful tool. If you are considering this strategy, let’s discuss whether it makes sense for your business.
