About Safehold
Safehold (NYSE:SAFE) is a pioneering company focused on revolutionizing the way real estate ownership is understood and operated. With a distinctive model, Safehold eschews traditional property purchasing in favor of a ground lease structure. This innovative approach allows property owners to separate the land from the building, selling the land to Safehold while retaining ownership of the structure. This enables owners to unlock capital, reduce debt levels, and potentially enhance property value and liquidity. Operating across various locations, the company's projects aim to provide secure, long-term value for both property owners and shareholders. Safehold's objective is to expand its portfolio of ground leases, continuously targeting prime urban areas where its unique model can offer the most significant financial benefits.
