Spotting the real estate fee uplift in a business sale

March 20265 min read

A quick screen for which of your deals carry owned property worth separating.

When you sell a business that owns the building it operates in, there is often a second transaction hiding inside the first, and a second fee with it.

The screen

Ask one question early: does the business own its facility? If it does, the real estate can usually be sold alongside the business through a sale-leaseback, adding 10% or more in fees on the engagement.

How it runs

We value and structure the real estate in parallel with your business sale, with no extra lift for you, and we close on your timeline. We never hold up the sale of the business.

The result

Your client gets full value for both the business and the building, and you earn on both halves of the deal rather than leaving the real estate on the table.
