We buy the buildings you work in.

Timmer Partners is a family‑owned real estate firm in Grand Rapids, Michigan.

We have owned commercial property since 2008. Today we hold more than 50 buildings in 15 states, most of them leased to the companies that operate in them, and we invest only our own money.

Sale-Leasebacks / Partnerships / Net Lease

Sale‑Leasebacks

Most of our purchases are sale-leasebacks. We buy the building, your company leases it back and keeps operating, and the money tied up in the real estate goes back into the business.

Sell the building, stay in it.

Partnerships

For owners who want cash from their building without selling all of it, we buy part of it and you keep the rest. Your company stays on as the tenant, and you have the option to buy our share back later.

Sell part of it, keep the rest.

Net Lease and Vacant

We also buy single-tenant industrial buildings leased to established companies, along with vacant or underused buildings when the location and the price make sense.

Industrial buildings, leased or empty.

More than 50 buildings in 15 states.
