Sale Leaseback Occupier Advisory
A sale leaseback lets an operating business sell the real estate it occupies while immediately signing a lease to stay in place, converting a fixed asset into working capital without disrupting operations. We advise San Diego, CA operators who want that liquidity, structuring rent, escalations, and lease term to be attractive to the pool of net lease and 1031 exchange buyers actively searching for exactly this kind of asset. On the buy side, San Diego, CA investors like sale leaseback properties because the seller becomes a highly motivated, in place tenant on day one, which typically means predictable rent and tenant controlled maintenance responsibilities rather than the vacancy risk of a speculative purchase. We work both sides of the transaction, since a well structured sale leaseback benefits the operator who needs cash and the exchanger who needs a qualifying, income producing replacement property before the forty five day identification deadline.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about sale leaseback occupier advisory in San Diego
Do you represent buyers and sellers?+
We facilitate introductions between the operator and prospective San Diego, CA buyers and ensure separate legal teams draft conflict free documents for each side, rather than acting as a single representative for both parties.
Can you position the lease for 1031 buyers?+
Yes, we build rent schedules and escalation structures that align with what San Diego, CA exchange buyers typically look for, including predictable annual or periodic bumps and clear landlord versus tenant maintenance responsibility.
What sectors use this service?+
We see demand from medical, retail, industrial, and service companies located in or relocating from San Diego, CA, all looking to unlock capital tied up in owned real estate while continuing operations without interruption.
How is the lease rent typically set?+
Rent is generally set to reflect a market cap rate on the appraised value of the property, structured so the resulting yield is attractive to San Diego, CA 1031 exchange buyers while remaining affordable for the operator continuing as tenant.
Does a sale leaseback work on a compressed timeline?+
Sale leasebacks can move faster than a typical open market listing once terms are agreed, which is useful for San Diego, CA exchange buyers working against the forty five day identification window, though the operator's own timeline needs also factor into how quickly the deal can close.
What should an operator watch for in the lease terms?+
Operators should review renewal options, rent escalation pace, and maintenance obligations carefully before signing, since they are committing to those terms for the life of the lease; we recommend San Diego, CA operators retain their own counsel separate from the buyer's team.
