Sale and Leaseback

Sale & leaseback transactions can offer significant advantages to occupiers. It is a common way of freeing up capital quickly to allow investment in the operational side of a business but more recently it has been a tool to divest property where the property requirement of a business is likely to reduce over the medium to long term.
