Capital Solutions for West Virginia Automotive Dealers

Pointe Automotive is a leading capital investment advisory firm dedicated to serving automotive dealers across West Virginia. We deliver tailored financial and real estate strategies designed to help dealership owners unlock equity, defer taxes, and position their businesses for long-term success. Our core focus includes 1031 Exchanges, Sale-Leasebacks, and M&A Support for privately held dealerships and their professional advisors.

West Virginia’s economy has long been rooted in industry, infrastructure, and small business enterprise. While historically known for coal and manufacturing, the state is now expanding its economic footprint through healthcare, logistics, and retail—sectors that continue to strengthen the presence of franchised automotive dealerships. From Charleston and Huntington to Morgantown, Parkersburg, and Wheeling, Pointe Automotive partners with dealers across the state to strategically manage and grow their real estate portfolios.

1031 Exchange Replacement Property Advisors

Pointe Automotive works closely with West Virginia dealers to provide 1031 Exchange advisory services that help defer capital gains taxes when selling dealership or commercial real estate. We guide clients through the process of identifying, evaluating, and acquiring qualified replacement properties that align with both IRS requirements and their long-term financial goals.

Our role is to serve as a strategic investment advisor—not just a transaction coordinator. We partner with CPAs and attorneys to ensure that every aspect of your exchange is executed properly, giving you the ability to reinvest proceeds in high-performing, income-generating assets—often still within the automotive sector. Whether you’re planning for retirement, expansion, or succession, our 1031 expertise helps preserve capital and extend your legacy.

Unlocking Real Estate Value Through Sale-Leasebacks

For West Virginia dealership owners with significant equity in their property, a sale-leaseback offers an attractive solution to access capital while maintaining operational control. By selling your facility and leasing it back on long-term terms, you free up liquidity for expansion, renovations, debt reduction, or estate planning—without relocating your business.

Pointe Automotive specializes in structuring sale-leasebacks that maximize value and offer stable, investor-friendly lease terms. Whether you’re located in Beckley, Clarksburg, Martinsburg, or the Eastern Panhandle, we help you position your property in front of qualified investors while protecting the operational integrity of your business. Our process ensures you retain control, while gaining the capital you need to achieve your next milestone.

M&A Support for Privately Held Dealerships

Navigating the sale or acquisition of a dealership requires an experienced team of advisors—and real estate often represents a substantial portion of the transaction’s value. Pointe Automotive provides M&A Support services that complement the efforts of CPAs, attorneys, and financial planners throughout West Virginia.

We bring deep expertise in dealership real estate underwriting, market positioning, and valuation to ensure that every transaction is structured for success. Whether you’re selling a single rooftop in Bluefield or acquiring a group of stores in the Kanawha Valley, our team ensures that the real estate strategy supports the broader financial and operational goals of the deal.
