Sheppard Mullin’s Texas real estate practice delivers sophisticated counsel to clients across all aspects of commercial real estate. We advise on acquisitions and dispositions, financing for both borrowers and lenders, joint ventures, developments, construction, land use entitlements, environmental issues, commercial leasing, sale-leaseback transactions and tax structuring across a variety of asset classes. Backed by the resources of 140+ attorneys nationally, we provide seamless, full-service guidance throughout every phase of a project.
We distinguish ourselves as market leaders in multifamily development, regularly guiding the largest developers, owners, operators and institutional investors through complex transactions and financings totaling billions of dollars. Our team possesses unmatched experience in borrower-side financing, drawing from our extensive negotiation history with a broad array of lenders to secure optimal deal terms and mitigate risk.
We are at the forefront of the build-to-rent sector, counseling clients through the unique challenges of these transactions from land acquisition to the disposition of completed projects. Our net lease practice spans both large-scale portfolios and single-asset transactions, innovating with structures such as hybrid lease/mortgage deals and joint ventures. We also advise landlords and tenants in millions of square feet of office, industrial, retail and R&D leasing, including adaptations necessitated by market changes.
