Landowner FAQs
What are the benefits of selling my infrastructure lease?
Selling to Accelerate gives you immediate lump sum value for your long-term lease payments while removing the risk of cancellation or future rent reductions. The money you receive can be reinvested or used to purchase additional property, pay down debt, or plan for retirement. Depending on the specifics of the sale, there may also be tax advantages available.
What if I have no need for money?
You’re not alone! Many people who work with Accelerate do not need the money, but they do recognize the opportunities that immediate capital affords them. Often our clients will use the money they receive to purchase additional real estate or reinvest to maximize their returns.
What do you need from me to value my lease?
We need very little to provide you an offer. All we need is a full and complete copy of your lease including any amendments, evidence of the current rent payment like a recent check stub, and confirmation of the date of your next rent increase in your lease.
How quickly can you present an offer?
We will present an offer within a few days of receiving your lease and rent confirmation.
How quickly can Accelerate close a transaction?
We strive to close every transaction expeditiously and as quickly as possible. Generally, we close transactions within 45-90 days from the date of a signed Letter of Intent (LOI), depending on the complexities involved, document negotiation, title and survey issues, and other customary due diligence.
Providing us with existing title policies, surveys, environmental reports, and other due diligence at the outset of a transaction will greatly expedite the closing. We commit to giving your transaction our full attention.
