We represent purchasers and sellers in all aspects of residential and commercial real estate transactions, including condominiums, cooperative units, commercial buildings and office space. We are zealous advocates for the interests of our clients, whether conducting thorough due diligence review, ardently negotiating contracts and loan agreements or educating our clients.
A vital aspect of our representation is making sure any real estate transaction fits with a client’s estate planning goals and minimizes tax exposure. Additionally, we advise clients on structuring a transaction to provide protection from creditors, as well as avoiding probate.
In a real estate sale, we go beyond the scope of the transaction to counsel the seller on the most suitable and advantageous form of ownership. We are also experienced in working with Non-US Citizens, foreign nationals and investors, for whom the proper form of ownership is even more crucial especially as it pertains to their U.S. estate tax exposure.
