Frequently Asked Questions

  1. How long does it take to close?
    This structure follows traditional real estate closing timelines and transactions usually close in 30-60 days.
  2. Will you help find the leasehold mortgage?
    Yes, we will work on a best-efforts basis as a broker to locate the leasehold mortgage.
  3. Do I have to hire you to find the leasehold mortgage?
    No, you may retain your own broker or work with your preferred lender directly. However, we strongly recommend hiring us:
    1. We want to make sure the leasehold lender fully understands the terms of the ground lease and any documentation requirements of theirs are satisfied.
    2. Both transactions need to close simultaneously and it’s easiest for us to coordinate all the parties.
  4. Why can’t you give me a precise price right now?
    As with any real estate acquisition, we need to underwrite the property and perform the customary due diligence.
  5. Are the ground lease terms locked before the closing date?
    Yes. We will agree to the purchase price and ground lease rent, for the entire term of the lease, subject to material adverse changes in the market.
  6. Will this affect my ability to sell the property in the future?
    We have generally seen no negative feedback from the market on the sale of leasehold interests. Lenders are accepting of our ground lease structure allowing the next owner to finance their acquisition. The next owner will also enjoy the same income tax and cash flow benefits as current ownership.
  7. Will this in any way affect how I operate my property?
    No. The leasehold owner has the right to “quiet enjoyment” of the property throughout the term of the lease.
