A waterfront condo sale with an association right of first refusal
- Challenge
- The building's association held a right of first refusal, which meant the sale could not close until the association formally waived or exercised it. Buyers get nervous when a timeline has a step nobody controls.
- Strategy
- Build the contract timeline around the association's review window, deliver a complete package to the association early, and keep the buyer informed about exactly where the process stood.
- Solution
- The ROFR process was handled as a planned step in the transaction rather than a surprise at the end.

A lot purchase where the title review mattered more than the price
- Challenge
- A nonprofit buyer was purchasing a lot for a specific future use. The price was agreed; the risk was hidden in the record.
- Strategy
- Review the title commitment line by line against the buyer's intended use before the buyer was fully committed.
- Solution
- A restrictive covenant affecting the property was identified during review and brought to the buyer and counsel to resolve before closing.

Bridging a price gap with terms instead of a lower number
- Challenge
- The buyer wanted the site but did not want to tie up all of its capital at once. The seller was focused on price.
- Strategy
- Keep the price the seller needed and change the terms: a meaningful down payment, interest-only seller financing, and a short balloon.
- Solution
- The seller received a proposal that protected the headline price, while the buyer preserved liquidity. Every deal is an ecosystem.

Separating the business from the building in an ALF sale
- Challenge
- An assisted living facility owner needed a marketable price, but buyers value the operating business and the real estate differently, and lenders underwrite them differently.
- Strategy
- Review the P&L, then value the business and the real estate separately so each can be defended in buyer and lender conversations.
- Solution
- An investor-grade investment summary presented both values clearly, giving qualified buyers a faster path to a serious offer.
