Investment by DGA to release funds
This is a unique service provided by Secerno Real Estate to Company Owners and Entrepreneurs by a sale and leaseback construction.
Many company owners who are registered as the majority share holder have their pension secured in the company they own. Especially when their investment is put in the real estate of the company it is possible to buy the company buildings and lease these buildings on a longer term.
In this way it is possible to release the funds from the company. This is possible by hiring the assets to the company for a longer period (Sale and Lease back) to allow the company to operate with no consequence as normal.
Consideration is given to several factors such as Location, Book and Market Value, Tax Consequences, vision and mission of the business. Due to the complexity and specific factors there is no general advice, for more information and to discuss your situation with no obligation please
