Help by San Diego Law Firm
San Diego Commercial Real Estate Legal Services including Help with Buying, Selling, & Leasing Property & Equipment; Zoning, Environmental & Other Issues
San Diego Law Firm provides high-quality, cost-effective business real estate services for all types of commercial property transactions.
If you do not have a commercial real estate broker and need one, we have a business alliance with Paramount Realty, which provides brokerage services that compliment our legal services. However, we can readily coordinate our legal services with any commercial real estate broker you select.
Buying Business Real Estate: How San Diego Law Firm Can Help
When you buy commercial property, San Diego Law Firm can help smooth and steady the progress of the transaction while making sure your interests are fully protected. We will work to make sure you're getting the best deal available at the same time you're avoiding complications. We can help you with:
- Title to Property - We can clear up questions about legal title, boundaries and easements, liens, and other title problems. We can also evaluate whether it would be worthwhile, from the viewpoint of limitation of liability, business succession, and tax consequences, to have a separate entity controlled by you take title to the property and lease it back to your business.If so, we can also draft a family trust, a family limited partnership, or an LLP for this purpose.
- Equipment Title -- We will identify what's needed to clear liens and resolve other ownership problems with equipment that will be part of your purchase.
- Environmental Issues – We will pay special attention to situations where hazardous substances may have been used on the property. We will obtain environmental reports and advise you so that any costly environmental clean-up can be handled before the sale is complete, or else accounted for in the price.
- Commercial tenants -- If the property is leased, we will obtain complete tenant estoppel certificates. These will spell out your obligations and responsibilities to tenants once the sale closes.
- Zoning, California Coastal Commission, building code, and other laws and regulations -- We can advise you on how various federal, state, and local laws may affect your ability to use the property for your intended business purposes. We can also negotiate an option to purchase that is contingent on the granting of a zoning variance or permit, and can handle your application process for either a variance or permit.
- Purchase terms and other issues -- We also draft offers, counteroffers, and sales contracts for commercial property. We offer guidance and legal assistance in resolving other problems that can slow down a sale, such as problems with purchase terms and taking possession, tax liens, foreclosures, short sales, bankruptcy sales, foreign-owned property, and other complicated situations.
