Due Diligence

During due diligence, stakeholders conduct thorough property inspections, including structural, electrical, and mechanical reviews, and present findings to all parties involved. Financial records, such as leases and tax assessments, are scrutinized along with title searches for any issues like liens. Environmental studies are arranged for soil contamination concerns. Legal experts review contracts, and appraisals gauge market value, and provide updates to stakeholders. Regular communication ensures timely completion and effective issue resolution.

Escrow

Closing

In the closing stage of the commercial real estate sale process, the focus shifts to finalizing all details to ensure a successful close. This phase involves verifying all documentation like the purchase agreement, addendums, and disclosures are complete and signed. Coordinating with the escrow agent to confirm the funds’ receipt, arranging the property title transfer, and completing financial reconciliation are crucial steps. Additionally, handling lease assignments, utility transfers, and scheduled inspections ensures an efficient closing phase as per the agreement terms for a smooth transition.

Positive Relationships

Post-Closing Procedures

The post-closing procedures phase involves addressing post-closing inquiries and confirming legal compliance. Tasks include reporting the transaction’s closure to authorities, securely storing documents, and accurately distributing brokerage commissions. These procedures are essential for finalizing the deal and upholding positive relationships among all involved parties.
