Real Estate Acquisitions & Dispositions

CM Law’s real estate acquisitions & dispositions team represents buyers, sellers, investors, developers, family offices, funds, lenders, and other stakeholders in complex commercial real estate transactions across all asset classes. We help clients evaluate opportunities, structure transactions, manage diligence, negotiate purchase/sale documents, and close deals efficiently while supporting the business objectives that matter the most to our clients.

Our attorneys advise clients on all phases of acquisition and disposition transactions, including: 

  • Letters of intent, purchase and sale agreements, option agreements, and contribution agreements 
  • Due diligence, including title, survey, zoning, leases, contracts, environmental matters, financing, and operational issues 
  • Reciprocal easement agreements, covenants, conditions and restrictions agreements, development agreements, and other development-related documents  
  • Closing documents, escrow arrangements, entity authority, prorations, and post-closing obligations 
  • Coordination with lenders, brokers, title companies, surveyors, consultants, and other transaction participants 

Projects handled by CM’s team include portfolio transactions, single-asset transactions, sale-leasebacks, joint ventures, and development/redevelopment projects. 

CM Law’s attorneys bring a collaborative, practical approach to each transaction, drawing on their partners when needed in finance, leasing, land use, construction, tax, corporate, and litigation experience. We focus on helping clients identify opportunities and risks early, negotiate efficiently, and move transactions from diligence to closing with clarity and confidence.
