What is a Sale Leaseback (SLB)?
Most businesses today are not in the business of owning real estate but still rely on land and
buildings to operate. A SLB allows a company to reduce its investment in these non-core assets and unlocks capital by selling their property and simultaneously leasing it back. This separates the asset’s ownership value from its utility value.
This strategic financing tool empowers businesses to reinvest in their core operations, fund business expansions, or optimize their balance sheets by paying down debt, all while remaining in their current location.
Why Businesses Choose the Sale Leaseback: Strategic Advantages
Create value through arbitrage of EBITDA vs Cap Rate multiples
Convert illiquid asset into cash, optimizing balance sheet
Retain full control of the property on favorable terms with ongoing repurchase rights
Redeploy capital into highest and best use
Capital without personal guarantees from shareholders
Cheaper than other financing alternatives
Liquidity through non-dilutive capital event
Flexible liquidity without covenants or restrictions
Unlock up to 100% of asset value vs. a mortgage ~60%
Improve tax efficiency without adding debt or leverage
