Flexibility A sale leaseback can provide flexibility to redeploy capital into a company's core business.

Avoid borrowing costs A sale leaseback can help avoid additional costs like interest rates associated with debt financing.

Generate cash flows A sale leaseback can improve cash flow by putting cash back into a company and having smaller recurring monthly payments.
