OKC attorney for the acquisition of duplexes, other multifamily units, and apartment buildings

There are several factors which must be addressed when purchasing a multifamily dwelling. First, it is crucial to ensure that the units are properly zoned and to review any existing leases with tenants. It is also crucial to fully inspect the properties for compliance with state and local housing ordinances and to conduct a risk assessment to determine if there are potential issues of liability. If it is time to move forward with a transaction, then it will be necessary to secure financing after setting up a business structure to own and manage the units. Once the property or properties have been acquired, the operators must then ensure that they maintain the units, that they stay in compliance with local laws, and that they deal with other issues promptly.

Attorney assisting with distressed Oklahoma multifamily units

It is common for multifamily units to be underperforming financially. This can result in cash flows which are not sufficient to pay loan obligations. Rather than risking foreclosure, it may be possible to make alternative arrangements to improve the property’s performance. Such arrangements may include renegotiating loan terms, seeking a forbearance of payments, attempting to restructure debt, and more. It is often best for all parties involved, including the lender, for the units to be saved. Our attorney works with the owners and operators of distressed units to help improve their performance. We are also able to assist with acquiring distressed properties.
