Our Acquisition Process

Five steps.
Zero surprises.

Time is money. Three decades of closed NNN transactions have refined a process that protects your capital, respects your schedule, and eliminates the surprises that derail lesser acquisitions.

The Five-Step Acquisition Process

Identify the Right Property

Not every NNN property is a sound investment. We review dozens of candidates before recommending a single one. The analysis is multi-layered and uncompromising.

  • Analyse surrounding retail, traffic counts, and ingress/egress to assess location permanence
  • Evaluate tenant creditworthiness: public rating, franchise vs. corporate, store-level sales data
  • Review lease structure: landlord obligations, rent escalation schedule, option periods, termination provisions
  • Compare and contrast candidates on a risk-adjusted yield basis
  • Narrow to the singular property that best aligns with your capital objectives

Our edge: Most buyers see what's listed. We see what's worth buying. A pharmacy at the wrong intersection is a problem waiting to announce itself. We have the market knowledge to know the difference.

Secure the Right Property

Identifying the right property is only valuable if you can acquire it. In a competitive NNN market, how you present yourself to the seller determines whether you close — or watch another buyer take the asset.

  • Submit a Letter of Intent that demonstrates both financial capability and deal sophistication
  • Leverage our existing relationships with institutional and private sellers — relationships built over 30 years of closed transactions
  • Negotiate LOI terms that protect your position without overreaching and losing the deal
  • Transition smoothly into the purchase contract phase with seller confidence established

Why it matters: Sellers choose buyers they trust to close. Our track record of closed transactions with specific sellers is a competitive advantage that money alone cannot buy.

Finalize the Purchase Contract

The purchase contract is where deals are won or lost. Every clause matters. Every day counts. We ensure your legal team enters the process fully briefed and ready to protect your interests.

  • Seller's attorney prepares the purchase contract following LOI agreement — we review every clause
  • Brief your attorney comprehensively on intelligence gathered during the LOI phase
  • Identify all due diligence items the seller will provide and flag gaps early
  • Line up survey, engineering, and environmental providers before the contract is signed
  • Execute the purchase contract with confidence and a clear timeline

Due Diligence

Your due diligence period begins the day the contract is signed. This is the most consequential phase — and the one where inexperienced buyers get hurt. We are 100% engaged from day one.

  • Tenant financials: review store-level and corporate P&L to validate lease security
  • Title: confirm clean chain of title, easements, encumbrances, and restrictions
  • Survey: verify property boundaries, setbacks, and improvements
  • Phase I Environmental: confirm no contamination risk on the site
  • Engineering report: structural and systems condition assessment
  • Estoppel certificate: tenant-verified confirmation of lease terms and status
  • Certificate of occupancy, tax certificate, property insurance, construction warranties
  • Loan documents reviewed and approved if financing is involved

The standard: Everything is reviewed and approved before your due diligence period concludes. No extensions. No surprises at the closing table.

Close & Collect

Closing is the culmination of proper planning and thorough analysis. There is no drama here — just the satisfying execution of a well-run process.

  • Attorney prepares and reviews closing documents for accuracy and completeness
  • Coordinate with lender, title company, and all parties to establish closing date
  • Confirm prorations, closing costs, and wire instructions in advance
  • Execute the closing with zero surprises

The result: You make money — rent — the day you close. The investment begins performing the moment the deed transfers.
