Purchase and Sale Agreements

Example property size: single-tenant pads (2,500–5,000 SF) up to anchored shopping centers (150,000–600,000 SF).

We run disciplined PSAs from LOI through closing, coordinating diligence, title/survey, REAs, and lender requirements without dragging timelines. Our focus is on risk allocation that matches the business deal with clean reps, practical cure rights, and closing mechanics that actually fund.

Real Estate Business & Corporate Law

Example property size (typical client holdings): portfolios totaling 100,000–1,000,000 SF across multiple states.

We form, govern, and transact operating entities behind CRE ownership and development, aligning company documents with financing and JV terms. Expect plain-English operating agreements, buy–sell mechanics, and transaction support that fit your capital stack.

Real Estate Development & Redevelopment

Example property size: ground-up or re-tenanting projects from 50,000–400,000 SF mixed-use/retail.

We structure land control, entitlements, development agreements, and construction documents to keep schedules and anchors on track. Our drafting ties city, lender, and tenant milestones together so the pro forma survives reality.

Example property size: stabilized centers of 75,000–300,000 SF with multi-tenant mixes.

We negotiate landlord and tenant forms for retail, pad, and ground leases with attention to co-tenancy, exclusives, build-out, and remedies. Our leases are pragmatic, readable, and built to enforce.

Example property size: multi-parcel retail campuses totaling 100,000–500,000 SF.

We draft and amend CC&Rs/REAs and reciprocal easements that let sites function access, parking, signage, and shared utilities. Clean recorded documents prevent future site-plan gridlock and simplify lender/tenant approvals.
