What We Buy
Clean ownership under assets that need to stay put.
We are looking for landowners, developers, brokers, and operators with monetizable ground positions. The operating asset can stay in place. We buy the land or ground rent interest and let the tenant keep operating.
Developer sale-leasebacks
Capital release for developers and operators who want to own the project economics, not keep capital trapped in the dirt.
Small portfolios
Multiple parcels with common sponsorship, geography, tenant profile, or lease form. Compact portfolios can be especially efficient to diligence.
Pricing View
Cap rates are only the first pass.
Long leases
Price primarily from ground rent, escalation, tenant quality, and remaining term.
Mid-term leases
Use DCF plus residual land value. The exit matters as much as the coupon.
Short leases
Treat the income as a bridge to land value, not as a bond-like income product.
How We Work
Direct, practical, and built for non-core landowners.
We keep early conversations simple. If the land income is durable, the lease is assignable, and the residual land position makes sense, we can move from screening to a focused offer without turning the process into a science project.
Screen
Lease term, rent, escalators, tenant, tax and insurance responsibility, title, and site constraints.
Underwrite
Ground-rent yield, downside land value, renewal options, decommissioning obligations, and financing fit.
Offer
A clear land-only purchase proposal with the operating infrastructure left intact.
Current Target List
Where we are spending time first.
Solar portfolios
Small, clean portfolios like operating New England solar land with common ownership.
EV charging ground leases
Fast-charging sites with Tesla, Electrify America, EVgo, or similar tenants.
Battery storage sites
Operational or near-operational BESS land with long-dated site control.
