Capital Solutions for Tennessee Automotive Dealers

Pointe Automotive is a premier automotive capital investment advisory firm serving dealership owners across Tennessee. Our focus is helping dealers unlock real estate value, defer capital gains, and position their businesses for long-term financial success. With decades of industry expertise, we deliver tailored solutions built around 1031 Exchanges, Sale-Leasebacks, and M&A Support.

Tennessee has long been a cornerstone of the American automotive landscape. From early manufacturing roots to its current role as a logistics and distribution hub, the state’s central location and pro-business policies have made it home to both major auto manufacturers and a strong network of independent dealerships. With no personal income tax and a low cost of living, cities like Nashville, Memphis, Knoxville, Chattanooga, and Murfreesboro continue to attract growth, investment, and automotive expansion.

1031 Exchange Replacement Property Advisors

At Pointe Automotive, we guide Tennessee dealers through the complex process of 1031 Exchanges—allowing them to defer capital gains taxes and reinvest proceeds from real estate sales into like-kind assets. We specialize in sourcing high-performing replacement properties that align with your financial and operational goals, often within the automotive sector itself.

Whether you’re planning a dealership exit or restructuring your portfolio, our team coordinates closely with your CPA and legal advisors to ensure IRS compliance and strategic reinvestment. As your capital advisor, we go beyond the transaction—helping you protect equity, preserve legacy, and position your assets for sustained performance.

Unlocking Real Estate Value Through Sale-Leasebacks

A sale-leaseback is one of the most effective ways for a dealer to access liquidity without disrupting operations. By selling your real estate and leasing it back under a long-term agreement, you can free up capital to fund expansion, reduce debt, or prepare for succession—all while maintaining complete control of your business.

Pointe Automotive structures sale-leasebacks that align with market conditions and investor demand. Whether you operate in fast-growing regions like Franklin or Clarksville or established markets like Johnson City or Jackson, we provide the insight and execution needed to maximize value. Our proven process ensures strong valuations, flexible lease terms, and a stable foundation for long-term growth.

M&A Support for Privately Held Dealerships

For privately held and family-owned dealerships preparing for a sale, merger, or acquisition, Pointe Automotive delivers real estate-centered M&A Support that complements your legal and financial team. We help ensure that the real estate component of every transaction is thoroughly evaluated, accurately valued, and strategically positioned.

We support CPAs, attorneys, and succession planners by providing detailed underwriting, market insights, and transaction structuring that leads to better outcomes. Whether you’re preparing for a buy-sell, recapitalization, or retirement, our M&A Support helps unlock maximum value while minimizing disruption.
