With soaring inflation and rising energy costs it’s no surprise that many small business owners are struggling with cashflow.

So what’s the solution? A potential way out of debt for owners of freehold office, factory or retail premises is to sell their building quickly and enter into a lease of exactly the same premises. Investors would pay a proper market purchase price on the proviso that the seller enters into at least a 5 year lease.

Many SME business owners may not have considered this as an option but it is a great way for them to raise capital quickly without being dependent on the banks or government handouts. It also offers a way out for those approaching retirement, as if you have someone in place to take over the business after they retire, it’s just a question of a change of landlord.

Finding the right investor who will give you the opportunity to thrive in your current premises could make the difference between success or failure.
