COMMERCIAL GROUND RENTS

Benefits of commercial ground rents

  • Generate and release additional equity value by restructuring the title

  • Release funds while retaining long term ownership

  • Funds generated are profit

  • Can be used to fund purchases and reduce cash input

  • Clear or reduce negative equity positions

  • Alternative to external debt such as banks or private equity

 

Commercial ground rents provide real opportunity for the market. We can assist vendors to generate and release additional value by purchasing the freehold title of your property.

It’s a straightforward concept and is a form of sale and leaseback. The difference, however, is the lease is very long and effectively a virtual freehold with a low rent in comparison to open market rent.

The property owner retains ownership of the asset on a long lease and is responsible for the ground rent payment, all other income generated is retained by the property owner.

As ground rent is a secure and robust income stream, the price paid for it will be much stronger than the overall asset would typically attract. The split into freehold and long leasehold creates an uplift in the overall value of the property/site and therefore a gain to the owner.
