Commercial Real Estate

The firm represents buyers, sellers, owners, and sponsors in commercial real estate acquisitions, dispositions, and refinancings. Transactions may involve a direct purchase of the property or the acquisition of an entity that owns it, requiring the real estate and corporate workstreams to be coordinated.

The firm prepares and negotiates purchase agreements, reviews title and survey matters, manages diligence, addresses property-management and assignment issues, and coordinates closing deliverables. The file is organized with the next financing, sale, or audit in mind.

§ Questions

FAQs

Q.

Asset purchase or entity purchase?

Entity deals can preserve financing and contracts but inherit history; asset deals run cleaner but trigger consents and transfer costs. The structure decision is worth more than most negotiated points.

Q.

What do you actually do with the title commitment?

Read every exception, decide which survive, and negotiate the rest off — because exceptions become your problems at the moment of closing, permanently.

Q.

Do you coordinate with our lender’s counsel?

Constantly — and because the firm prepares the opinions and closing deliverables on lenders’ checklists deal after deal, it knows what that checklist will say before it arrives. See Credit Facilities & Real Estate Finance.
