Frequently Asked Questions

How do commercial real estate transactions differ from residential?

Commercial real estate transactions are more complex than residential deals, involving intricate due diligence, zoning, and land use bylaws. They frequently include detailed lease agreements or considerations for business operations, requiring a deeper level of legal analysis and negotiation compared to buying or selling a home.

Due diligence involves a thorough investigation of the property to identify any potential risks or issues before finalizing the deal. This can include reviewing zoning, environmental reports, title encumbrances, existing leases, and the property’s financial viability, all to ensure the buyer understands the full scope of their investment.

Commercial lease agreements can be highly complex documents with significant long-term implications for a business. A lawyer is essential to review clauses related to rent increases, operating costs, repair responsibilities, renewal options, and termination clauses, ensuring your business’s interests are protected and you understand all obligations prior to signing.
