Unlock working capital while keeping essential assets in use.
Lease Your Assets Limited helps UK limited companies raise funds against plant, machinery, equipment and stock through a documented sale-and-leaseback process, with optional secure stock relocation and distribution support where suitable.
Available to UK limited companies only. Subject to valuation, due diligence, ownership checks and contract.
Example stock relocation & order flow
This illustrates a simple operating flow for relocated stock held in secure premises.
A straightforward sale followed by a leaseback.
The company sells agreed assets to us for a commercial purchase price. We then lease those assets back so the business can continue using them under clear lease terms.
Initial review
Tell us about the assets, site, ownership position, finance, stock and any urgent trading pressures.
Valuation & checks
We review asset value, condition, marketability, title, encumbrances and any disclosed creditor or court position.
Completion documents
The sale, leaseback, board approval and completion certificate are prepared so the asset snapshot is clear.
Leaseback
After completion, the company keeps using the assets as lessee and pays rent under the agreed terms.
Plant, machinery, equipment and business stock.
We consider assets that can be identified, valued and transferred on a genuine commercial basis. Each case is reviewed individually.
Valuation basis
We do not treat book value as the automatic market value. Used commercial assets and stock are reviewed against realistic trade, auction, liquidation or net realisable values, taking account of age, condition, saleability, removal cost and market demand.
Current assets and stock
Where a company wants to sell broad categories such as current assets and stock, we use a completion certificate, site description, photos and exclusions so the transfer is properly documented.
Secure stock relocation
For suitable stock, we can help coordinate stock relocation, inventory capture, chain-of-custody records and transfer into secure premises or storage facilities.
Distribution support
We can also assist with onward distribution, pick/pack, release instructions, stock reporting and practical logistics support where the stock type, access arrangements and facility capacity allow it.
Relocation, secure storage and distribution support for business stock.
Business stock needs careful handling when it is moved away from the seller’s premises. We can help coordinate secure storage, inventory records, controlled release instructions, distribution routes and practical stock reporting.
Clear, cautious and documented.
Sale-and-leaseback is useful, but it must be handled properly. We ask the difficult questions up front so the transaction has a clean paper trail.
Ownership checks
We ask for proof of ownership, invoices, asset registers, serial numbers, finance disclosures and retention-of-title information where relevant.
Creditor & enforcement disclosure
Companies must disclose judgments, writs, threatened enforcement, statutory demands, winding-up threats and other matters that may affect the assets or transaction.
Commercial purpose
The transaction must have a proper commercial purpose, with fair value, real payment, lease terms and proper company approval.
Common questions
Plain-English answers before getting into the paperwork.
Can the company keep using the assets?
Yes. That is the purpose of a sale-and-leaseback. The assets can stay in use at the company’s premises, but after completion the company uses them as lessee rather than owner.
Can stock and current assets be included?
Potentially, yes. Broad categories need careful documentation, including site details, photos, valuation notes, exclusions and a completion certificate to show what was transferred.
What if there are creditors or court proceedings?
They must be disclosed. A sale-and-leaseback should not be used to hide assets or prejudice creditors. Where there is a live judgment, writ, enforcement notice or insolvency risk, specialist legal advice may be needed before completion.
Is book value used for the purchase price?
Not automatically. Book value may not reflect the real market value of used assets or stock. We look at fair commercial value, including likely auction, trade or net realisable value.
Can you help with stock relocation and distribution?
Potentially, yes. We can review the stock type, location, volume, handling requirements, access arrangements and distribution needs before confirming whether we can assist.
Who insures the assets after completion?
The lessee normally keeps the assets insured for full replacement or agreed value, with our interest noted as owner where possible.
