Auto Service Center M&A and Real Estate Advisors

At Pointe Automotive, we serve as trusted Automotive Service Center Capital Advisors, helping operators, franchisees, and investors in the auto service industry unlock capital, execute strategic transactions, and reposition underutilized real estate. With over 40 years of experience in the automotive aftermarket and real estate sectors, our team delivers customized solutions to maximize the value of your operating business and real estate assets.

Our advisory services focus on three key areas—Sale-Leasebacks, M&A Support, and the Disposition of no longer-used real estate—to help clients strengthen their balance sheets, simplify complex transitions, and refocus on high-performing assets.

SLBs: Unlock Capital While Maintaining Operational Control

For service center owners looking to access the equity tied up in their real estate, a sale-leaseback is one of the most effective financial tools. This strategy allows you to sell your property to an investor while continuing to operate at the same location under a long-term lease.

Pointe Automotive structures sale-leasebacks that:

  • Deliver above-market valuations based on tenant strength and lease terms

  • Provide immediate liquidity without disrupting business operations

  • Offer long-term occupancy under lease terms tailored to your operational needs

  • Preserve brand consistency and site continuity

M&A Support: Structuring Transactions for Maximum Value

Aligning business operations and real estate is critical to achieving a successful outcome when buying or selling an automotive service business. Pointe Automotive provides comprehensive M&A support designed to help you structure transactions that maximize overall deal value while minimizing complexity.

Our M&A advisory services include:

  • Financial and real estate valuation

  • Pre-sale planning and positioning

  • Structuring deals with real estate bifurcation or sale-leasebacks

  • Buyer/investor engagement and negotiation

  • Post-transaction leasing, closing, and transition support

Disposition of Non-Essential Automotive Real Estate

Over time, operators may find themselves holding real estate that is no longer useful—whether due to relocation, store closures, brand consolidation, or operational restructuring. These unused or underperforming assets can drain resources and delay growth opportunities.

Pointe Automotive provides a full suite of disposition services to help you:

  • Sell closed or relocated service centers, tire stores, or quick lube sites

  • Reposition properties for new use or tenants

  • Offload surplus parcels or adjacent land

  • Market assets to retail developers, net lease investors, or user-operators
