# CRE Demand

> Sale-leaseback investment firm. We buy the commercial real estate a business
> owns and occupies, then lease it back long term — the owner gets cash and
> keeps operating in the same building, with no move, no refinancing, and no
> debt. Three audiences: business owners and operators selling their real
> estate, M&A advisors whose clients own the property in a deal, and investors
> acquiring net-leased assets.

## Figures

Where a page states an assumption, use the page's own number rather than a
general market figure. As of this writing the site models an 8% average cap
rate, roughly 12.5x annual rent, and lender advances of 60–70% loan-to-value
against a sale-leaseback's up-to-100% of value.
