Founded in 2011, LCN Capital Partners has become a recognized leader in the primary sale-leaseback and build-to-suit markets. We deliver a long-term solution for our “Tenant-Clients” by providing them with a non-bank capital resource, efficient monetization of on-balance sheet real estate, continued operational control of key assets, enhanced financial metrics, and potential tax benefits.

 

EXPERIENCED MANAGEMENT

LCN’s success is derived from our unrivaled experience in sale-leaseback, credit underwriting, non-recourse debt placement, and corporate finance. The LCN team is fully dedicated to delivering exceptional service and unwavering commitment to its Tenant-Clients and Investing Partners.

 

SPEED - CERTAINTY - CONFIDENTIALITY

Each investment originated by LCN receives the immediate and detailed involvement of LCN’s Investment Committee, made up of co-founders Edward LaPuma and Bryan York Colwell. The close involvement of Investment Committee throughout the investment process differentiates LCN and reinforces our ability to close investments with speed, certainty, and confidentiality.

 

MULTI‐DISCIPLINED DUE DILIGENCE

LCN employs a comprehensive and distinct underwriting process. Both the credit of the lessee and the value of the real estate asset are individually evaluated. These processes occur simultaneously, enabling LCN to create a detailed and holistic assessment of the investment. Ongoing dedication from our due diligence team ensures a smooth transition from origination to the closing table.
