Real estate capital advisory for multi-unit operators

Your buildings are the cheapest capital you will ever raise.

American Net Lease helps operators with 10–60 locations sell the real estate under their businesses, lease it back on their own terms, and redeploy the equity into growth — then places the property with a 3,000+ investor buyer list that closes on time.

How it works

One firm, both sides of the trade.

We read your portfolio, structure the lease you can live with, and market the property to investors we already know. The seller never meets a stranger's spreadsheet.

01

Read

Portfolio Capital Analysis: indicative value, implied equity, occupancy-cost delta, three scenarios. 48 hours, confidential.

02

Structure

Term, renewals, escalations, assignment rights — written before the property is ever marketed. The lease is the product; you author it.

03

Market & close

Off-market to a buyer list that already wants your sector, scored and matched the same day. Then a transaction desk that watches every date.

Who this is for

Operators who own the dirt under a business that works.

The honest comparison

Sale-leaseback or refinance?

A refinance keeps the deed and adds debt. A sale-leaseback sells the fee and converts occupancy into rent. Which wins depends on basis, coverage, and how much you need above what a lender will advance.
