Our Real Estate Transaction Lawyers Routinely Handle:

• Purchase and Sale Agreements – the “script’ of the transaction, we review purchase and sale agreements on behalf of buyers and sellers. Getting this initial document correct is essential to having a solid start to a real estate transaction. We encourage our clients to get us involved as quickly as possible so we can head off any initial issues.
• Title Review and Insurance – as a purchaser or lender, you have to know what it is you are purchasing or taking as collateral. A review of title or a title insurance commitment is essential for this purpose. The “devil is in the details” with regard to title. The seller/borrower may own the property but it may be subject to easements, restrictions or reservations which affect the use intended. The review and understanding of these title documents take an attorney experienced in handling real estate transactions.
• Survey review – typically, title insurance commitments and policies contain an exception for matters disclosed by an accurate survey. This requires a careful review of the survey to ensure that there are no additional title issues raised by it.
• Environmental due diligence – nowhere is due diligence more important than in the context of environmental liabilities. State and Federal laws establish strict liability upon owners/former owners of property contaminated by environmental hazards. Our attorneys regularly work with environmental consultants to assist you in assessing the risks regarding your particular parcel of real estate.
• Loan documents – lender financing in Pensacola and throughout Florida involves notes, mortgages, security agreements, UCC-1 Financing Statements, Assignments of Rents and Leases and a host of other documents. Our team represents both lenders and borrowers involved in real estate financing, have handled financings involving more than $100,000,000 and routinely handle financings involving $10 Million or more. We are happy to provide all of our clients with the type of experience and service required by institutions in multi-million dollar transactions.
