Disposition Services for Automotive Properties

At Pointe Automotive, we provide comprehensive Real Estate Disposition Services for auto dealers, aftermarket operators, and automotive investors looking to dispose of or reposition real estate assets that no longer serve a strategic or operational purpose. As experienced Automotive Capital Advisors, we help clients identify underutilized, vacant, or non-performing properties and develop tailored disposition strategies that maximize value, reduce carrying costs, and realign their real estate portfolio with evolving business objectives.

With over 40 years of experience in automotive retail and real estate transactions, we understand the importance of extracting maximum value from every square foot—whether it’s an idle dealership, a surplus service center, or a legacy property from a prior acquisition.

When/Why to Consider a Real Estate Disposition Strategy

Auto dealers and aftermarket business owners often accumulate real estate through acquisitions, relocations, consolidations, or operational shifts. Over time, these properties may become obsolete, redundant, or financially burdensome. Holding onto unused real estate ties up capital, increases maintenance and tax obligations, and limits strategic flexibility.

Pointe Automotive helps clients address this challenge by offering disposition solutions when:

• A dealership relocates or is consolidated with another store

• A business division is sold, closed, or restructured

• A property is no longer compliant with OEM facility requirements

• Ownership transitions lead to divestment of non-core assets

• The real estate is more valuable for alternative uses or redevelopment

Customized Exit Strategies for Maximum Value

There is no one-size-fits-all approach to real estate disposition. Pointe Automotive develops customized strategies based on the type of property, market conditions, and the client's goals. We assess the best course of action, whether that means a direct sale, 1031 exchange, sale to a user-operator, or repositioning for investment sale.

Our disposition services include:

• Asset evaluation and market analysis

• Highest and best use studies

• Buyer and investor outreach (on-market and off-market)

• Marketing and brokerage execution

• Lease negotiation (if repurposing or repositioning the site)

• Coordination with legal, title, and financial advisors

Repositioning Assets for Redevelopment or Repurposing

Not all real estate needs to be sold outright. In many cases, formerly operational automotive properties can be repurposed or redeveloped to attract a new tenant or buyer. This repositioning strategy allows owners to enhance value before disposal by improving the property’s income potential or usability.

We assist clients in:

• Reconfiguring site plans to attract alternative uses (retail, industrial, flex)

• Subdividing parcels for partial sale or multi-tenant conversion

• Engaging architects, engineers, or planners to assess redevelopment potential

• Marketing the repositioned property to a broader buyer or tenant base

• Structuring long-term leases that make the property more attractive to net lease investors
