Developers benefit from our strong network of tenants and investors, as well as our ability to position assets in line with emerging market trends and opportunities.
Sale and Leaseback
As part of our capital markets services, BNP Paribas Real Estate Netherlands also offers guidance in ‘sale-and-leaseback’ processes. A sale-and-leaseback is a transaction in which you sell the property to an investor and immediately lease it back at your preferred lease-back terms. After a sale and-leaseback transaction, you as the seller continues to use your property for business operations. By leasing the property on a triple-net basis, you secure long-term non-reliance on a landlord and can continue your operation in the property. Advantages of a S&LB transaction include:
- Additional liquidity to be invested in day-to-day operations,
- Improved balance sheet positioning,
- Less risks (decreased lender dependence), and more returns on other investments.
Over the past few years BNP Paribas Real Estate’s broader transaction team has already assisted in more than €650 Mn and approx. 600,000 sqm of transactions and thus offers the right experience and expertise for success. Our track record is broad and ranges from smaller regional deals to large XXL projects of multinationals.
