NEW YORK, Dec. 8, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Safehold Inc. (NYSE: SAFE), the creator and leader of the modern ground lease industry, announced today that it has closed its 100th ground lease, bringing its aggregate portfolio to approximately $4.5 billion.

"Closing our 100th ground lease marks a significant milestone for Safehold. Since we launched in 2017, our mission has been to usher in a new era of better, more efficient capital for the commercial real estate industry while also providing best-in-class service to our customers," said Jay Sugarman, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.
