Real Estate

Real Estate is deeply rooted within Ferruzzo’s history. Our attorneys have an in-depth understanding of the marketplace. We have culled broad relationships in the industry that we leverage to provide winning solutions for our clients. The multi-practice groups that make up Ferruzzo allow us to approach each transaction with quality and expertise. At Ferruzzo, we regularly represent owners, users, and lender clients holding interests in real estate, be it a single property or a portfolio of commercial real estate.

Acquisition & Disposition

Working with individuals or institutions seeking to acquire or sell real estate, Ferruzzo helps clients throughout the acquisition and disposition processes to efficiently structure purchase/sale transactions, conduct and manage due diligence, understand and resolve title and governmental regulatory issues, and facilitate financing.

Construction & Tenant Improvements

Our attorneys have significant experience assisting in the negotiation and review or drafting of construction service agreements using standard contract resources (e.g., AIA) or customized contracts, to accomplish the design and development or improvement of commercial real estate.

Commercial Leasing

We regularly represent landlords and tenants in all types of commercial real property leases — from gross to net and office — to industrial, including ground leases and build to suit transactions.

Workouts & Dispute Resolution

We frequently negotiate in and out-of-court workouts, drawing on our lawyers from multiple disciplines within the Firm skilled in negotiation and litigation. This allows us to successfully resolve co-ownership and construction disputes, including mechanic’s liens, and landlord/tenant issues. Our years of experience assist us in settling disputes over fair market rental value and common area maintenance charges, lease termination, lease enforcement, and in the defense of unlawful detainer actions.

Finance

We routinely structure, negotiate, and document secured financing transactions representing borrower and lender clients involved in traditional, private securitized or structured debt transactions for the acquisition, construction, improvement or refinancing of all types of commercial real estate.
