By monetizing its owned real estate, Basic Environmental Group generated capital to pay down debt and reinvest in the business, while continuing to operate from the facility under a new long-term lease agreement. Transaction Approach Ascension structured and executed the sale leaseback of the company’s 31,900-square-foot industrial facility. The property serves as Basic Environmental Group’s sole operating facility and is mission-critical to its business, supporting equipment storage, project staging, crew dispatch, emergency response and environmental remediation activities. Ascension coordinated the transaction process and managed multiple workstreams to ensure an efficient closing. Its investor outreach highlighted the company’s established operating history, blue-chip customer relationships, zero-accident safety record, specialized environmental certifications and approximately $2.4 million invested in the property. The property was acquired by a private buyer under a new long-term, absolute triple-net lease with annual rent increases. This structure allows Basic Environmental Group to retain operational control of the facility while providing the buyer with stable, long-term cash flow and a passive real estate investment. Outcome The sale leaseback allowed Basic Environmental Group to convert equity held in its real estate into capital that will be used to pay down debt and reinvest in the business, while preserving uninterrupted use of its strategic headquarters and operating facility. The private buyer was very pleased with the outcome and the opportunity to acquire a mission-critical industrial property backed by a long-term lease with contractual annual rent increases. The transaction demonstrates how Ascension Advisory helps companies unlock capital tied up in owned real estate through structured sale leaseback transactions, generating liquidity for debt reduction and business reinvestment while maintaining operational continuity.   ### Let’s Talk ###### Category - [Journal Article](https://ascensionadvisory.com/ascension-advisory-blog/tag/journal-article) - [Case Study](https://ascensionadvisory.com/ascension-advisory-blog/tag/case-study) - [M&A](https://ascensionadvisory.com/ascension-advisory-blog/tag/ma) - [Private Equity](https://ascensionadvisory.com/ascension-advisory-blog/tag/private-equity) - [Industrial](https://ascensionadvisory.com/ascension-advisory-blog/tag/industrial) - [Manufacturing](https://ascensionadvisory.com/ascension-advisory-blog/tag/manufacturing) - [Automotive](https://ascensionadvisory.com/ascension-advisory-blog/tag/automotive) - [Press Release](https://ascensionadvisory.com/ascension-advisory-blog/tag/press-release) - [Europe](https://ascensionadvisory.com/ascension-advisory-blog/tag/europe) - [Food Distribution](https://ascensionadvisory.com/ascension-advisory-blog/tag/food-distribution) - [Notable Transactions](https://ascensionadvisory.com/ascension-advisory-blog/tag/notable-transactions) - [Retail](https://ascensionadvisory.com/ascension-advisory-blog/tag/retail) - [Car Wash](https://ascensionadvisory.com/ascension-advisory-blog/tag/car-wash) - [Healthcare](https://ascensionadvisory.com/ascension-advisory-blog/tag/healthcare) - [Outdoor Storage](https://ascensionadvisory.com/ascension-advisory-blog/tag/outdoor-storage) - [Cold Storage](https://ascensionadvisory.com/ascension-advisory-blog/tag/cold-storage) - [Quick Service Restaurant](https://ascensionadvisory.com/ascension-advisory-blog/tag/quick-service-restaurant) - [Tax Benefits](https://ascensionadvisory.com/ascension-advisory-blog/tag/tax-benefits) - [Build to Suit](https://ascensionadvisory.com/ascension-advisory-blog/tag/build-to-suit) - [Capital Markets](https://ascensionadvisory.com/ascension-advisory-blog/tag/capital-markets) - [Pharmaceutical](https://ascensionadvisory.com/ascension-advisory-blog/tag/pharmaceutical) - [pharm](https://ascensionadvisory.com/ascension-advisory-blog/tag/pharm) ###### Popular Post - [The Difference Between Tuck-ins, Add-ons, and Platforms in M&A](https://ascensionadvisory.com/ascension-advisory-blog/the-difference-between-tuck-ins-add-ons-and-platforms-in-ma?hsLang=en) - [Why Airlines Use Sale Leasebacks to Unlock Capital and Stay Airborne](https://ascensionadvisory.com/ascension-advisory-blog/why-airlines-use-sale-leasebacks-to-unlock-capital-and-stay-airborne?hsLang=en) - [The Difference Between Platforms and PortCo's in Private Equity](https://ascensionadvisory.com/ascension-advisory-blog/the-difference-between-platforms-and-portcos-in-private-equity?hsLang=en) - [How to Structure a Leveraged Buyout for Maximum Value](https://ascensionadvisory.com/ascension-advisory-blog/how-to-structure-a-leveraged-buyout-for-maximum-value?hsLang=en) - [Keurig Dr Pepper’s $18 Billion Coffee Play Redefines Its Portfolio](https://ascensionadvisory.com/ascension-advisory-blog/keurig-dr-peppers-18-billion-coffee-play-redefines-its-portfolio?hsLang=en) ### Leave a Comment ### Similar Blogs ![The Capital Your Business Needs May Already Be in Your Real Estate](https://ascensionadvisory.com/hs-fs/hubfs/sale%20leaseback.jpg?width=352&name=sale%20leaseback.jpg) #### [The Capital Your Business Needs May Already Be in Your Real Estate](https://ascensionadvisory.com/ascension-advisory-blog/el-capital-que-su-empresa-necesita-podr%C3%ADa-estar-en-sus-bienes-ra%C3%ADces?hsLang=en) By [Nina Valtchanov](https://ascensionadvisory.com/ascension-advisory-blog/author/nina-valtchanov) 11 September 2026 Many businesses need capital to repay debt, purchase equipment, increase production, finance an...
