Stabilized Data Centre Sales.

Selling a data centre is not like selling conventional commercial real estate. Buyers require technical due diligence on power infrastructure, cooling systems, carrier access, and operational track record. Pricing is driven by power density, lease quality, tenant credit, and remaining useful life of MEP systems — not just per-square-foot comps.

PowerSite Data Centre Group structures disposition processes that position your asset correctly, reach the right qualified buyers, and drive competitive tension to maximise proceeds. We manage the full process from valuation through closing — coordinating legal, technical, and financial due diligence to protect your timeline and certainty.

Mandate Advisory

We maintain active relationships with institutional investors, REITs, infrastructure funds, pension funds, and private equity platforms specifically seeking Canadian and US data centre exposure. Our buyer network is not generic CRE capital — it is capital that understands and underwrites data centre assets.

// Disposition Process

Colocation Asset Sales.

Step 01
Asset Assessment

Technical and financial review of the asset: power capacity, MEP condition, lease WALE, tenant mix, and embedded value.

Step 02
Valuation

Cap rate benchmarking, DCF modelling, and comparable transaction analysis to establish a defensible pricing mandate.

Step 03
Marketing Package

Institutional-quality OM, financial model, technical data room, and targeted outreach to qualified buyers.

Step 04
Buyer Outreach

Confidential outreach to our institutional buyer network — REITs, infrastructure funds, family offices, and strategic buyers.

Step 05
LOI & Negotiation

Offer management, negotiation strategy, and LOI structuring to maximise proceeds and transaction certainty.

Step 06
Due Diligence & Close

Coordinating technical, legal, and financial due diligence through to closing — managing timeline and buyer issues.

// Portfolio Transactions

Data Centre Portfolio Transactions.

Portfolio dispositions require a different mandate than single-asset sales. Buyer pools are smaller, underwriting is more complex, and pricing often reflects a portfolio premium — or discount — depending on how the assets are packaged and presented. We structure portfolio processes to maximise aggregated value.

  • Multi-asset portfolio assembly and narrative development
  • Asset carve-out structuring for highest-and-best-use dispositions
  • Partial interest sales and minority stake structuring
  • Phased dispositions aligned with development timelines
  • Canadian portfolio transactions with US component advisory

Sale-leaseback allows operators to monetise their real estate while retaining operational control. We structure sale-leaseback processes for Canadian data centre operators seeking liquidity, balance sheet optimisation, or capital redeployment into their core operating business.

The data centre investment sales market is driven by institutional appetite for long-duration, mission-critical cash flows. We position assets to attract infrastructure fund, REIT, and pension capital — the buyers who pay the highest prices for quality data centre exposure.

// Acquisition Advisory

Institutional Investor Advisory.

We also represent buyers in acquisition mandates — sourcing off-market and lightly marketed data centre assets that meet specific investment criteria. Our buyer advisory service is particularly valuable for investors new to the Canadian market who need a local, specialist partner to source, underwrite, and negotiate acquisitions.

Frequently Asked.

What is a data centre investment sale?

An investment sale is the disposition of a stabilized, income-producing data centre asset or portfolio to an investor, REIT, or institution. PowerSite advises owners on positioning, buyer targeting, and running a structured process to achieve the strongest execution.

What types of data centre assets do you sell?

We advise on stabilized colocation and hyperscale facilities, powered shell buildings, single-tenant net-leased data centres, and multi-asset portfolios. We also advise on partial-interest and recapitalization transactions.

How do you run a disposition process?

We prepare a full offering package, establish valuation benchmarks, and run a structured, competitive process to a curated buyer pool of REITs, private equity platforms, family offices, and institutions — managing diligence, negotiation, and closing to protect value and certainty of execution.

Do you advise on sale-leasebacks?

Yes. Sale-leaseback structures let operators unlock capital tied up in owned facilities while retaining operational control under a long-term lease. We advise on structuring, pricing, and counterparty selection for these transactions.

Who buys stabilized data centre assets?

Buyers include digital infrastructure REITs, private equity and infrastructure funds, pension funds, family offices, and institutional investors seeking long-duration, contracted cash flows. We maintain active relationships across this capital base on both sides of the border.
