As the title reads, I want to connect with M&A Advisors / Business Brokers / Investment Bankers. I'm only on the real estate side of things, but am brought in to advise when it is included in a business acquisition. Our services are of no charge or obligation unless someone decides to transact with us. If anything, we can be an extra resource to add value to your client.

I work directly with several of these groups to help their clients on both the buy- and sell-side. Some challenges on my end are getting the word out to these parties and exposure / overall knowledge of our services. I know many M&A groups like to handle the real estate themselves. We are not looking to step on any toes and will never get directly involved in selling a business itself.

On the buy-side: we can evaluate structuring a sale-leaseback when the real estate is available in a business acquisition. It can be evaluated if a simultaneous double-escrow is viable and/or has any arbitrage between asking price and sale-leaseback value. This can also be evaluted post-acquisition if the real estate is either acquired or leased with a purchase option.

On the sell-side: we can provide data such as market rents and Cap Rates and show the seller how putting a multiple on the rental income affects the value, whether they are choosing to retain the RE or considering a sale with the business. The seller of the company can even consider a sale leaseback prior to the business sale to maximize value or simply evaluate the property value upon signing a lease instead of the appraised value. If anything, it can be used as a benchmark for future decision-making.
