Residential Real Estate
Residential real estate transactions often involve much more than people initially expect. While every transaction is different, there are several legal and financial matters that should be addressed before ownership of a property officially changes hands. Fortunately, an experienced attorney can help ensure that potential issues are identified and resolved. The Law Office of Peter A. Hurwitz, PLLC, assists clients with many different types of residential real estate matters, including:
- Residential purchase and sale agreements
- Contract drafting and contract review
- Buyer and seller negotiations
- Title examinations
- Resolving title defects and liens
- Mortgage and financing document review
- Closing representation
- Property transfers between family members
- Condominium and cooperative transactions
- New construction purchases
- Residential real estate disputes
Commercial Real Estate
Commercial real estate transactions are often even more complex than residential transactions. In many cases, significantly larger sums of money are involved, negotiations are more extensive, and the contracts themselves are considerably more detailed. Because of this, businesses and investors frequently benefit from experienced legal representation from the very beginning of a transaction.
The Law Office of Peter A. Hurwitz, PLLC, represents clients in a broad range of commercial real estate matters, including the following:
- Commercial property purchases and sales
- Commercial lease drafting
- Commercial lease review and negotiation
- Office, retail, industrial, and warehouse properties
- Multi-family investment properties
- Contract preparation
- Due diligence investigations
- Title and survey review
- Closing representation
- Commercial real estate litigation and disputes
Commercial real estate contracts often address issues that simply are not present in residential transactions. For example, the agreement may contain provisions regarding zoning compliance, environmental concerns, tenant improvements, financing requirements, maintenance obligations, default remedies, and future development rights. Because these provisions can have a significant impact on your investment, they should always be reviewed carefully before any agreement is finalized.
Businesses purchasing commercial property should also understand how local zoning ordinances, easements, land use restrictions, and municipal regulations may affect both current operations and future plans for the property. Conducting thorough due diligence before closing can often uncover issues that may otherwise result in significant legal or financial consequences later on.
