Hello all, I am grateful to have found this community.
I have become increasingly curious about whether, and to what extent, I could potentially benefit from "merging" my privately held real estate investment properties onto the balance sheet of an acquired business.
Knowing each situation is unique, what characteristics for an operating business might make more or less sense to fit this possible approach?
Let's assume my overall objective is to maximize the tax situation post-acquisition.
The properties are cash flow positive (but require lumpy capex), and have fixed leverage with healthy debt service coverage and ample equity. I had initially planned to use a credit line tied to one of them to partially fund the acquisition, but could consider more creative structures. As of now, I am still lacking a target for acquisition.
Thanks in advance for any insight, perspective, advice, etc.
Acquiring a holding company?
