Real Estate Capital Solutions for Utah Auto Dealers

Pointe Automotive is a trusted real estate investment and advisory firm that provides tailored capital solutions to automotive dealers and private investors across Utah. With decades of experience in dealership operations, commercial real estate strategy, and structured transactions, we help our clients unlock equity, plan for succession, and position their real estate for maximum long-term value. Whether you operate in Salt Lake City, Provo, Ogden, St. George, or a regional market across the state, our team delivers actionable strategies built around your goals.

Creating Liquidity While Maintaining Operational Control

For many Utah dealers, real estate is a significant asset, yet its value often remains locked in the form of ownership. Pointe Automotive helps unlock that value through customized sale-leaseback transactions that convert equity into capital—without impacting business continuity. Under this structure, dealers sell their property at market value and lease it back under favorable terms, retaining full operational control while gaining immediate liquidity.

This capital can be used to reinvest in dealership improvements, expand into new markets, fund succession plans, or strengthen the business's overall financial position. In fast-growing areas such as the Wasatch Front and southern Utah, where land values continue to rise, a sale-leaseback offers a smart way to leverage property while staying ahead of operational demands. Each transaction is structured to support the dealership’s long-term strategy and preserve the integrity of its day-to-day operations.

Aligning Real Estate with Dealership Transitions

Mergers, acquisitions, and generational transitions are reshaping Utah’s dealership landscape. Whether you're preparing to sell, expand your group, or pass your business to the next generation, the real estate component of any transaction plays a central role. Pointe Automotive offers specialized M&A support focused on aligning the real estate with the financial and operational aspects of dealership transactions.

We assist both buyers and sellers in evaluating property value, structuring leases, and bifurcating the real estate from the operating business when needed. Our team works closely with legal, financial, and tax advisors to ensure that all aspects of the transaction are aligned and optimized. From urban rooftops to rural dealerships, our strategic guidance helps streamline the process and ensure the deal meets the long-term needs of all parties involved.

Turning Non-Core Properties into Strategic Capital

As the market evolves, many dealers face the challenge of managing real estate that no longer aligns with their current business plan. Whether it’s a closed location, a legacy facility, or land no longer designated for development, Pointe Automotive offers disposition services that help dealers extract maximum value from surplus assets.

Our team begins with a thorough assessment of the property’s market position and potential, followed by a tailored marketing plan aimed at qualified buyers such as developers, investors, or end users. We handle all aspects of the process—pricing, negotiations, due diligence, and closing—while ensuring confidentiality and minimal disruption to ongoing operations. Our understanding of Utah’s zoning, growth trends, and market conditions allows us to position each property for its highest and best use.
