You can enter into a leaseback transaction to sell the warehouse for 8MM in your pocket today, and lease it back with a finance/capital lease. You can now meet your debt obligations, and you keep operating control of the asset you sold. Since it’s a capital lease, you’re leasing back with the idea you’ll own the asset again
