The Build to Suit Advantage

 
For The Business

A build-to-suit arrangement allows a business to design and construct a facility that precisely meets their business needs without requiring their own capital investment. This approach preserves capital for growing businesses, while maintaining control of the facility as a tenant.

Business
For The Landlord

The landlord owns a brand new asset and secures a long-term tenant, guaranteeing a stable and reliable income stream for the future. This arrangement provides financial security and reduces the risk of vacancy, as the tenant's commitment to a custom-designed facility typically leads to longer occupancy.

What is build to suit financing?

Build to suit financing is a structure in which a capital partner funds the entire construction of a property that is tailored to a tenant’s specific needs. In exchange, the tenant signs a lease agreement, which is typically long-term in nature. The tenant benefits from a customized space without the upfront capital expenditure, and the capital partner gains a secured income stream through the lease.
