Real Estate Capital Markets & REITs

As a leading adviser to the investment fund and real estate industries, we represent a significant number of participants in the real estate sector. We advise issuers, owners, managers, investors and lenders on all aspects of REITs and real estate capital markets, from initial structuring through capital raising and monetization. Our representation includes advice concerning both public and private REITs, as well as other permanent capital and securitization structures to maximize returns on real estate-related assets and investments.

As part of our real estate capital markets practice, we advise on both public and private equity and debt offerings, tender offers, business combinations, roll-ups and privatizations, securitizations and ongoing public company and regulatory compliance. Our clients include publicly traded, public non-listed and private REITs, and both internally and externally managed vehicles. Through our leading real estate and finance practices, we also represent our REIT and other clients on sales and acquisitions of property and portfolios, leasing, development matters and bank financings.

Our ability to structure and execute complex real estate capital markets transactions is enhanced by our significant experience with all tax aspects of partnership, REIT and UPREIT structures, complex lending arrangements involving investment in U.S. real estate and real estate investments by pension trusts and other tax-exempt entities. We also have substantial experience advising clients on Investment Company Act issues related to REITs and other permanent capital vehicles.

The lawyers in our highly-respected real estate, capital markets, finance, securitization and tax groups work together across practices to bring efficient, practical solutions to our clients’ transactions in this area. This cross-practice collaboration is an important factor in providing the highest quality of representation for clients’ needs, which often involve complex, cutting-edge transactions.
