Sale-Leaseback Transactions

A sale-leaseback transaction involves a property owner selling their real estate to an investor and then leasing it back. This effectively transforms the owner into a tenant and the investor into the landlord. The seller (now tenant) receives the sales proceeds and pays rent to the new owner over the lease term, freeing up their capital.

Benefits of Sale-Leasebacks

  • Unlocking Capital: Sale-leasebacks provide a way for property owners to unlock capital tied up in their real estate.
  • Retaining Control: By leasing back the property, owners can maintain long-term control over their operations.
  • Reducing Financial Burden: This strategy can relieve owners of the financial burdens associated with property ownership, including terminal value risk.

Unique Structure

The distinctive feature of sale-leasebacks is that the property owner can sell their real estate to an outside investor while simultaneously leasing it back. This allows the owner to exit the ownership role but continue occupying the property as a tenant.

Monetizing Property

Sale-leasebacks offer a way for property owners to “monetize” their real estate and gain liquidity and flexibility. This strategy is particularly popular in the medical and private business sectors.
