Real estate transactions, including purchases, financings and sales, have become increasingly complex. Commercial leasing requires experienced counsel to draft and review comprehensive agreements and provide practical business advice. Development projects often require structuring which suits the uniqueness of each project and the reasonable business interests of each participant. Government regulation of real estate has increased the risks of acquiring and leasing income-producing properties as well as development lands, especially in the areas of land use, zoning and environmental regulation.
There is a saying popular in real estate seminars that “there is no such thing as a simple real estate deal”. Every deal requires a trained eye to make sure that the client’s expectations are met. Our lawyers combine technical skills and a broader business perspective to guide property owners, landlords, property managers, mortgage lenders, developers and professionals through the complexities of acquiring, developing, financing and managing their real property assets. Our advice is tempered with a practical business perspective.
Our clients look to us for advice in negotiating and structuring their transactions, drafting agreements, mortgages, leases and closing documents, completing due diligence, identifying and resolving issues and closing deals on a timely basis. Developers and builders rely on us for land acquisitions, developing projects and sales of new homes and condominium units.
To properly advise and service our clients, we provide a multi-disciplinary approach from our real estate, commercial and dispute resolution lawyers as the need arises. We are good at strategy and tactics and we negotiate with purpose and conviction. Our advice is straightforward and intelligible, without the confusing legal jargon and we focus on achieving our client’s business objectives without needless hassles or “over lawyering” the file.
