Retail, office, and industrial property sales involve transferring ownership of commercial spaces. The process typically includes purchase agreements, due diligence, financing, title review, and a formal closing that transfers deed and possession.
Key steps cover contract drafting, contingency management, due diligence coordination (title, surveys, environmental checks), financing arrangements, and accurate disclosure of known issues to buyers and lenders.
Common terms and concepts frequently used in commercial property transactions are defined below to help clients understand the process.
