Real Estate Leasing
Leasing is at the core of a large proportion
of real estate transactions, and understanding the complex business
needs of our clients, whether landlord, developer or tenant, is
central to our approach to successful lease negotiation.
Our diverse experience enables us to
anticipate and analyze problems and opportunities from every
perspective and to develop creative solutions. We provide practical
advice to structure and negotiate leases of office, retail,
warehouse, distribution, lab, medical or industrial space, or if
the project involves build-to-suit, ground lease or sale-leaseback
arrangements, we have the expertise to ensure our clients achieve
their business goals.
SNR Denton understands the need to maintain
and enhance income growth and capital value for landlords and
developers, whatever the type of real estate asset, and that
different asset classes carry different legal and commercial
challenges.
Likewise, for tenants we focus on their
business drivers: how the property needs to work for them now and
how it may need to work for them in the future, the need to control
costs and future exit strategy. Specifically, we guide
tenants through issues related to occupancy, questions involving
building design and operations, arrangements for expansion and
protections in the event of construction delays.
In the development sphere, we have a wealth of
experience in negotiating complex lease agreements for both
developers and tenants, where we structure the leasing arrangements
to reduce planning and construction risks, facilitate funding and
achieve tax efficiency.
Because our lawyers have represented parties on both sides, our
specialized teams understand the issues, concerns and risks that
may affect both landlords and tenants. We can offer practical
advice to protect our clients’ business expectations in leasing
transactions and ways to achieve optimal results. A lease is
an investment that may create long-term business relationships
between parties, and we have the resources to meet our clients’
business expectations relating to their investment.
