Zoning and Commercial Real Estate Acquisitions

It often takes months and years of careful, strategic planning to open a new business on commercial property or move an existing business to a new location.

Of course, certain municipal authorities carefully govern and regulate how commercial land is used and developed. Any company anticipating a bright financial future would be remiss to purchase a piece of commercial real estate in a highly-convenient area for a new store, only to find they are not legally permitted to construct the parking lot.

At John L. Dunn, LLP, we work with companies who plan for more––expansion, development, construction, improvements––by examining all of the practical and legal aspects from big picture to tedious detail. Because we leave no stone unturned, you can develop your plans for smaller, key location changes that will improve your business or large-scale construction and development projects that invest in the future of your establishment.

As a commercial real estate law firm, we’ve helped small businesses and large firms fulfill all necessary zoning regulations and obligations, allowing their businesses to grow, expand, and flourish. We work with owners, builders, developers, business leaders, planning teams, and boards on multiple types of zoning and land use scenarios.

Since we represent clients in Cincinnati, Ohio and several additional cities and states, we have unparalleled knowledge of the municipal regulations that will come into play for your business expansion or construction project, depending on the end use, including:

  • Commercial developments
  • Stores, franchises, branches, and retail chains
  • Salons, spas
  • Malls, shops, stores, shopping centers, boutiques, and galleries
  • Firms, brokerages, doctor’s offices, and medical buildings
  • Small businesses, travel agencies, sole proprietorships
  • Office spaces, industrial buildings, and machine shops
  • Service stations, gas stations, and convenience stores
  • Commercial real estate purchases in historic districts

Our staff can advise you on the practical aspects of your development plan. Our extensive knowledge of zoning regulations helps you avoid pitfalls early on, leaving time to revise plans instead of making an expensive, long-term errors that cost your company dearly.
