Contact us to discuss a proposed real estate acquisition or sale.

Advising and Representing Buyers

For buyers, we can perform thorough and comprehensive due diligence before the purchase of commercial property to protect your real estate investment. This includes:

  • Reviewing of title and survey issues
  • Overseeing the resolution of zoning, building code and environmental issues
  • Confirming and documenting the authority of the sellers
  • Review of existing leases and tenants
  • Overseeing the inspection process
  • Other due diligence tasks

Buyers tend to overlook the fact that negotiating the purchase agreement prior to closing is an important part of a commercial real estate transaction. There is significant value to setting up the purchase agreement correctly from the start, because in a commercial transaction it serves as a road map to how the buying process will progress. This should include ensuring that the seller has made comprehensive representations regarding the property.

Advising and Representing Sellers

Our firm also advises and represents sellers of commercial real estate. We can provide assessments of the intentions and financial strength of the buyer, prepare the property sales contract, prepare and review disclosure forms and other documentation, and perform other tasks related to the proposed transaction.

Through skilled negotiation of the purchase agreement, the optimal goal is to assign risk to the other party to the contract when possible. A skilled real estate contract attorney can help either a buyer or seller to manage and assign the risk that is inherent in any complex real estate transaction.

Through personal service, flexible billing arrangements, and a focus on achieving business objectives, we strive to create value in every real estate transaction.
