Commercial Real Estate
The firm represents buyers, sellers, owners, and sponsors in commercial real estate transactions — asset purchases, equity purchases of property-holding entities, dispositions, and the refinance transactions that punctuate a hold period. The practice runs with institutional discipline: title commitment review and exception resolution, survey analysis, diligence checklists, and closings documented so completely that the next lender’s diligence request is already answered. Where the deal is really an entity deal — a membership interest purchase wrapped around a building — the firm handles both layers as one transaction.

FAQs
THREE QUESTIONSAsset 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.
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.
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.
