If you are trying to make the decision whether to buy or lease the real estate that your company requires, there are six important questions you must ask. The answers to these questions will absolutely lead you to the right answer. What are those questions? 

• What is the projected growth of the company, and the holding period of the real estate?
• What is the company's alternate use of capital?
• What is the availability of capital?
• What exit strategy is required?
• What infrastructure improvements are required?
• Are there environmental concerns with the property?

Along with Steve Cohen of Franklin, Gringer and Cohen, I will be explaining how to answer these questions and make sense of the answers at our Spring Conference, "Should You Lease or Buy Real Estate for Your Business." It's being held Carlyle at the Race Palace in Plainview (located at LI Expressway Exit 48, Round Swamp Road) at 8 AM on Wednesday, April 29th.  I will also show you how to use discounted cash flows to compare two or more leasing or buying scenarios. 

In two hours we will explain the methodology and send you away with a booklet of the presentation.  The event is without charge, so feel free to invite anyone else who might benefit from this information, and join us for a free breakfast!
