Gibson Capital Advisors · Borrower-side debt advisory

Retail debt is priced off tenancy, not just NOI. Lenders discount rollover, co-tenancy exposure and anchor health long before they discount the cap rate. A center showing clean in-place NOI can still size well below the owner's expectation once a lender applies rollover haircuts and funds TI/LC reserves out of proceeds.

The work is getting that discount priced correctly, and competitively, before it becomes a term-sheet surprise.

What we finance

Grocery-anchored centers, unanchored strip, single-tenant net lease, power centers and pad sites.

Where the capital comes from

CMBS, which remains a genuine home for stabilized retail; life companies for grocery-anchored and credit-tenant assets; banks for value-add with recourse; debt funds for lease-up and repositioning; and credit-tenant-lease financing for long-dated single-tenant credit.

What we underwrite before the market sees it

Co-tenancy is the single most common reason retail proceeds come back below expectation. Mapping the thresholds, cure periods and remedies before going to market is what separates a priced risk from a priced uncertainty.

Retail maturity, acquisition or recapitalization ahead?

Send the rent roll and existing debt terms and we will return indicative proceeds across the executions worth running.
