The Capital Options Preview
Already funded.
Still worth a financing review.
A completed office fit-out can include company-owned improvements, fixtures and equipment. A review tests whether financing those assets would release useful capital on acceptable terms.

Office improvements:
retain use, release capital.
A sale-leaseback may release capital from eligible assets while the company continues using them. The decision turns on net proceeds, lease payments and the value of retaining the current arrangement.
- 01 Eligible assets
- Identify company-owned improvements and equipment, separate from landlord-funded assets. Check existing liens and the remaining property lease.
- 02 Net economics
- Compare proceeds after fees and debt repayment with the full payment schedule, end-of-term obligations and any restrictions on the assets.
- 03 Recommendation
- Set out whether to pursue financing or retain the existing position, with the terms and assumptions that would change the recommendation.
