Capital & Real Estate Advisory for Hospitality & Franchise Businesses

Sale-leaseback structuring, capital deployment strategy, and ownership transition advisory — for privately-held hospitality and franchise business owners — grounded in more than 40 years of firsthand owner-operator experience.

Sale-Leaseback Advisory

For hospitality and franchise owners with appreciated real estate, we structure sale-leaseback transactions that unlock equity from your property while preserving full operational control, structured entirely on your terms with no balloon payments and no restrictive covenants.

Ownership Transitions

For hospitality and franchise owners planning a succession, family transition, partner buyout, or exit — we provide principal-led advisory that ensures every decision is made from a position of strength, not pressure, and on your timeline, not someone else's.

Capital Deployment

For hospitality and franchise owners with idle capital — we identify, evaluate, and structure acquisitions of income-producing NNN real estate assets that generate predictable yields inside industries you already understand.

40+ Years of Experience — Principal-Led Advisory

Hospitality and franchise businesses are among the most real estate-intensive owner-operated enterprises in the market. Whether you own a single hotel property, a multi-location restaurant platform, or a regional franchise group, the real estate beneath your operation is often the most underleveraged asset on your balance sheet. Melton Advisors helps hospitality and franchise owners unlock that equity through sale-leaseback transactions, deploy idle capital into income-producing NNN assets, and navigate ownership transitions — including the family succession conversations that define generational businesses — with a principal-led advisor who treats every engagement with the discretion and seriousness it deserves.
