Corporate Finance
& Sale Leasebacks

The experience of our Corporate Finance Group – across investment sales, sale leaseback, M&A and investment banking/advisory services – goes beyond the traditional real estate brokerage relationship, bringing unique capabilities to our clients with over $40 billion of combined real estate and M&A transaction experience. We exclusively work with public and private companies, private equity firms and franchisees, evaluating and executing successful real estate capital strategies in order to maximize the value of real estate assets.

Joint Venture
& Equity Placement

Through our net lease real estate focus, we have developed an extensive network of specialized investors and high net worth individuals. These investors have played a significant role for developers, tenants and wholesalers on various investment levels by: Purchasing the property upon rent commencement or during the initial lease term; Providing the seller a bankable forward commitment before construction has completed; or Providing the developer and/or seller the equity funds or full capital stack needed to construct the property.

Real Estate
Pricing Advisory

A current understanding of the market is critical. We maintain an insider’s perspective in the net lease real estate market and can provide ownership entities with current valuation feedback based upon tenant credit analysis, comparable sales, and overall health of the net lease investment market. Our advisory services begin at the Request for Proposal (RFP) stages of a development opportunity. We monitor the valuation of the asset from award date, throughout the construction period, and into rent commencement. Our developer clients are well prepared to monetize the value they have created at the right time.
