Capital Solutions for Alabama Automotive Dealers

Pointe Automotive is a leading capital investment advisory firm that works exclusively with automotive dealership owners across Alabama. We provide customized strategies that help dealers unlock equity, defer taxes, and transition their operations with confidence. Our specialized focus includes 1031 Exchanges, Sale-Leasebacks, and M&A Support tailored to the unique needs of privately held dealerships.

Alabama has long held a strategic position in the U.S. automotive industry. From its roots in agricultural equipment manufacturing to its current role as a hub for global automakers, the state has built a strong foundation in industrial growth and transportation. Cities like Birmingham, Huntsville, Montgomery, and Mobile have become critical centers for auto production, logistics, and dealership activity. Alabama’s business-friendly tax structure, workforce development initiatives, and central location continue to drive dealership growth and real estate demand across the state.

1031 Exchange Replacement Property Advisors

At Pointe Automotive, we help Alabama dealers take full advantage of 1031 Exchange opportunities. When you sell a dealership or automotive property, we guide you through the process of identifying and acquiring qualified replacement properties—allowing you to defer capital gains taxes and reinvest with confidence.

Our role extends beyond brokerage. We act as a strategic investment advisor, working closely with your CPA and legal team to ensure the exchange is compliant, timely, and aligned with your financial goals. We often assist clients in reinvesting into automotive-related real estate, maintaining their footprint while preserving their equity. Whether you're preparing for retirement, expanding your portfolio, or optimizing your asset mix, our 1031 Exchange advisory services provide clarity and results.

Unlocking Real Estate Value Through Sale-Leasebacks

Many Alabama dealers are sitting on untapped equity in their real estate. Pointe Automotive structures sale-leaseback transactions that enable you to convert that equity into usable capital—without giving up operational control of your facility. By selling your property and leasing it back under favorable terms, you gain financial flexibility while continuing to operate from the same location.

Sale-leasebacks are especially valuable in markets like Tuscaloosa, Hoover, Dothan, and Decatur, where property values are rising and investor demand remains strong. We help you structure the transaction to maximize value, attract the right capital partners, and support your long-term business goals. Whether you’re looking to reinvest in operations, reduce debt, or plan for succession, our sale-leaseback expertise gives you the tools to do it on your terms.

M&A Support for Privately Held Dealerships

Mergers, acquisitions, and ownership transitions require experienced guidance—especially when real estate is involved. Pointe Automotive provides M&A Support that enhances the work of your legal and financial advisors by bringing deep insight into the valuation, underwriting, and structuring of dealership real estate.

We work directly with CPAs, attorneys, and dealership principals throughout Alabama to support buy-sell transactions, partnership restructuring, and succession planning. Our team ensures that the real estate portion of every deal is thoroughly evaluated and strategically positioned to maximize value and minimize tax liability. From initial planning to post-transaction strategy, we serve as a long-term capital partner for Alabama’s most successful dealer families.
