Strategic Real Estate Decisions Require Clear Guidance
Commercial property plays a central role in the growth, stability, and value of a business. Whether you are purchasing a building in downtown Asheville, negotiating a long-term lease for a new operation in Arden, or evaluating a development opportunity in Weaverville, you need clear guidance that helps you move forward confidently and strategically.
Commercial real estate transactions involve detailed negotiations, complex financing, and long-term obligations. You want counsel who understands how each piece fits together, who can protect your interests, and who can anticipate challenges before they become roadblocks.
We handle commercial transactions of all sizes, working with clients who value both practical advice and careful attention to detail.
What Falls Under Commercial Real Estate?
Purchases and Sales of Commercial Property: We assist with every stage of acquiring or selling commercial assets, including due diligence, title review, environmental considerations, financing documents, and closing.
Commercial Leasing: From retail storefronts in South Slope to office suites in Biltmore Park, we help landlords and tenants negotiate leases that balance risk, clarify obligations, and support long-term business needs.
Financing and Refinancing: We work with investors, lenders and borrowers on financing and loan documents, security agreements, and modifications, helping clients understand the terms and obligations of their financing.
Entity Formation and Structuring for Real Estate Holdings: For clients developing or holding commercial property, we advise on entity structures that support liability protection, tax efficiency, and long-term ownership goals.
Other Commercial Property Matters: Whether you are operating existing property or evaluating raw land, we help you understand the legal framework that applies to easements, shared access, covenants and other real property issues.
Support That Goes Beyond the Documents
Business-Centered Perspective: Commercial real estate decisions impact more than a closing date. We help clients weigh operational needs, risk tolerance, tax considerations, and investment goals to ensure the transaction aligns with the bigger picture.
Integrated Legal Support: Because we handle corporate transactions, intellectual property, and trust and estate planning in-house, we are able to advise commercial real estate clients with an eye toward ownership transitions, succession planning, and business growth.
Clear Communication From Start to Finish: Commercial deals can move quickly, involve multiple parties, and require precise timing. We keep the process predictable and keep you informed at each step.
