Kotz Sangster counsels clients on the practical aspects of every proposed purchase. Attorneys from Kotz Sangster’s Environmental Practice Group work with our clients to evaluate and plan for the effective environmental issues that impact real estate transactions today. We help purchaser’s obtain geo-technical and historical use information, assess remediation costs and investigate the likelihood of securing required permits for the intended use. We utilize a network of land surveyors, title insurers, structural engineers and real estate appraisers to make certain that our clients are confident and secure in every aspect of their real estate purchase decision.
We also work closely with our corporate, ERISA, tax, and securities lawyers to effectively structure investment vehicles for the acquisition, financing and operation of real estate projects. The creative structuring of real estate partnerships, limited liability companies, joint ventures and other real estate investment vehicles enables our clients to achieve the operating results they desire, while minimizing the tax impacts related to the ownership, operation and disposition of real property. We also work closely with our tax lawyers to structure and implement all types of like-kind exchanges of real estate assets, enabling our clients to defer gains that otherwise would be incurred in connection with the sale of real property.
