Commercial Property Acquisition Attorney in Texas

Our Texas attorneys step in from the very beginning of your acquisition and stay with you through closing and beyond. Here’s what that looks like in practice:

• Letter of Intent Review and Negotiation: The LOI sets the tone for every negotiation that follows. We review and negotiate letters of intent to make sure terms like purchase price, contingencies, due diligence periods, and exclusivity clauses are structured in your favor before any binding agreements are signed.
• Purchase Agreement Drafting and Review: Commercial purchase contracts in Texas are dense and seller-favorable by default. We rewrite or mark up these agreements to protect your interests,  addressing representations and warranties, indemnification clauses, closing conditions, and what happens if either party defaults.
• Title Examination and Clearing: We work with title companies to examine the full chain of title, identify any liens, easements, deed restrictions, or encumbrances that could affect your ownership rights, and resolve those issues before closing. Our contract review attorney services extend to every underlying document connected to the property’s history.
• Due Diligence Coordination: Due diligence on commercial property covers far more than a building inspection. We help coordinate legal due diligence across zoning compliance, environmental reports, lease review (if the property is tenanted), existing contracts that transfer with the property, and any pending litigation connected to it.
• Zoning and Land Use Verification: Before closing, we confirm that the property’s current zoning classification matches your intended use,  and if it doesn’t, we assess whether a variance or rezoning is achievable. Buying a property for a purpose that zoning doesn’t permit is a costly mistake that proper legal review prevents entirely.
• Financing and Lender Document Review: Commercial acquisition loans come with their own stack of legal documents, promissory notes, deeds of trust, loan agreements, and guarantees. We review all lender-side documents to make sure the terms are clear, the covenants are manageable, and you understand your obligations before you sign anything. For clients needing broader deal-level support, our business transaction attorney team handles the financing structure end-to-end.
• Closing Coordination and Document Execution: We manage the closing process to make sure every document is in order, funds are properly handled, and title transfers are clean. A disorganized closing can trigger post-transaction disputes; we make sure nothing is left ambiguous on closing day.
• Post-Closing Support and Dispute Resolution: If issues arise after closing,  a title claim surfaces, a seller misrepresents a material fact, or a boundary dispute emerges with a neighboring property,  we are ready to act. Our commercial real estate litigation team handles post-acquisition disputes across Texas, and because we know your transaction from the start, we can move faster and more effectively than outside counsel brought in cold.
