Sale Leasebacks: Bringing Liquidity to Mexico Industrial Real Estate Markets

CPA is Mexico's most aggressive and accomplished sale leaseback investor. A unique combination of financial strength, corporate finance expertise and experience across Mexico make CPA the most reliable partner for all transactions of this type. With institutional funding from the United States, CPA moves quickly and aggressively on each sale leaseback opportunity and can commit to a transaction of any size without a financing contingency.

Terms
CPA's standard structure is a fully triple net lease for a 5 to 10 year term, though CPA is especially flexible and able to devise terms matching any business goal. One frequently used alternative devised by CPA is the Controlled Exit, a structure that permits the seller to sign a shorter term lease while still achieving sale proceeds that reflect a longer term commitment.

CPA can commit to a transaction within days and typically closes within 90 days of signing of a letter of intent, often closing in as little as 45 days.

Financial Structure
Years of experience in corporate finance, knowledge of relevant FASB rules, and an understanding of cross border finance and tax implications allow CPA to create an effective partnership with the seller's finance professionals to structure the most efficient transaction for the seller.
