Credit Lease Investments, LLC provides 100% funding for single-tenant commercial real estate and energy projects nationwide, in exchange for a 20- or 30-year Finance Lease with a $1.00 buy-out at the end of the term. The lease structure, known as The CLI Lease, is intended to reduce costs for developer/operators relative to traditional financing and high-cost equity, and it is designed to eliminate phantom income. Its origins trace to principals who owned facilities leased to state governments in Kentucky, Michigan, Missouri, New Mexico, Texas and Virginia beginning in 1999. CLI offers programs for non-profit facilities, including build-to-suits, developer-operator projects, and sale-leasebacks. For private and public companies, CLI supports build-to-suits, acquisitions of existing single-tenant buildings, and sale-leasebacks. The energy program covers non-profit energy projects and investment-grade or large-company energy projects, all on a nationwide basis. The company is based in Vernon Hills, Illinois, and serves clients with a small, specialized team.
