Welcome

Commercial Real Estate

At Kriss & Feuerstein LLP, we can make your commercial transactions easier and more profitable because our attorneys are familiar with and experienced in the full range of services that are associated with complex corporate and commercial real estate transactions. We act as counsel for clients on all sides of the transaction in the various areas of commercial real estate such as: acquisitions and sales; debt and equity financing for both lenders and borrowers through the use of traditional mortgage financing, conduit loans, mezzanine debt and construction loans; leasing for landlords and tenants including office, retail, ground and net leases, and sale-leasebacks; and partnership and joint venture agreements. Although we handle any litigation that arises, we have expertise in workouts and restructurings for both lenders and borrowers, and we advise our clients in developing strategies for dealing with distressed real estate.

Our clients are developers, owners, institutional investors, lenders, tenants, real estate advisers, and underwriters. Our transactions involve every type of property across the country as we help our clients purchase commercial property throughout the United States through the use of local counsel.

Our skill and knowledge in the field is shown by the frequency in which we are asked to give legal opinions on New York law, as well as opinions on non-consolidation in securitized financing. We handle all aspects of acquisitions and dispositions, from the due diligence phase through the closing, including:

• Contract Negotiation
• Entity Structuring and Formation
• Financing — Private, Institutional, and Securitized 1031 Exchanges
• Mortgage Consolidations
• Title and Survey Clearance

Finally, we meet and exceed our clients' expectations because our attorneys combine their skills attained from years of experience at big firms with the personal service and attention that our firm's structure makes possible. Our attorneys take a practical approach to representation, limit costs by avoiding approaches that do not serve our clients, and most importantly, form relationships with our clients so that we may understand and relate to them and their business goals.
