Charter School Facilities Program Overview

About Charter School Capital

Working exclusively with charter schools, we measure our success by the number of students we serve. Our team works with all sizes – and types – of charter schools to budget and plan for current needs and future growth – whether your school requires operational capital, growth funding, or facilities expansion. We partner with our clients so they can focus on what’s most important – educating students.

Long-Term Lease Financing

Our lease product allows schools to access funding through all stages of growth – from startup to expansion through maturity. Our transparent lease terms mean that there are no artificial incentives to seek refinancing – another great benefit. As a long-term partner, our team carefully evaluates each school’s unique operation to help them determine the revenue that can be committed to supporting facilities.

Benefits of Long-Term Lease Financing

  • Finances 100% of your total project cost
  • Retain control of your facilities
  • Enhancements of existing buildings and ground-up construction
  • Ensures long term affordability
  • Tenant improvements included in the financing
  • Customized to school specifications (blended learning model, traditional, etc.)
