Banks and Credit Unions

Help a Good Customer When the Credit Box Can't.

Built to support the relationship, not replace it.

SLB Capital Group is a relationship management tool providing outside capital solutions for owner-occupied commercial real estate situations that traditional credit cannot fully address.

You Know This Customer

  • The Business is Viable

    A real operating company with a proven business, strong track record, and a reason to keep moving forward.

  • The Relationship Matters

    Deposits, treasury services, lending relationships, referrals and goodwill extend well beyond a single CRE loan.

  • The Real Estate Has Value

    Mission-critical owner-occupied real estate contains embedded value that conventional credit policy may not fully recognize or access.


When to Call Us

What we can help solve for:

  • Maturing owner-occupied CRE loans

  • Refinance shortfalls

  • Covenant or reserve pressure

  • Concentration or policy limits

  • Special assets and workouts

  • Unmet growth capital needs

  • Succession or ownership transitions

  • Situations where additional capital is needed but the institution does not want more exposure

Two Ways We Can Help

Leaseback Lending™

Unlock more of the value in owner-occupied real estate.

Leaseback Lending™ uses a structured sale-leaseback (“failed sale”) as a capital solution. The business receives liquidity, continues operating from the property under a long-term lease, and has defined future paths to repurchase the real estate.

OptionBridge™

Access real estate-backed capital while preserving ownership.

OptionBridge™ provides an alternative path to liquidity for qualified commercial property owners, including situations where preserving an existing senior financing relationship may be important.

What the Institution Gets:
