THE “STEP-BY-STEP” PROCESS

The commercial real estate process from contract to close in Nevada typically involves several key steps. It's important to note that the specifics can vary based on the complexity of the deal, the type of property, and the parties involved. Here's a general outline:

Letter of Intent (LOI)

The process often begins with a non-binding Letter of Intent outlining the key terms and conditions of the deal, such as the purchase price, due diligence period, and other relevant details.

Negotiation and Contract Execution

Once the parties agree on the terms, a formal purchase agreement or contract is drafted. Negotiations may occur before both parties reach a consensus, leading to the execution of the contract.

Due Diligence Period

The buyer typically conducts due diligence during a specified period, investigating the property's physical condition, financial records, legal status, and other relevant factors. This is a critical phase to identify and address any potential issues.

Financing Arrangements

If the buyer is securing financing, they work with lenders to finalize loan terms, complete underwriting, and obtain approval.

Title and Escrow

The title company conducts a title search to ensure there are no outstanding liens or title issues. An escrow account is set up to hold funds until the closing.

Contingency Resolution

Based on the due diligence findings, the parties may negotiate repairs, credits, or other adjustments to the contract terms.

Finalizing Financing

If applicable, the buyer finalizes financing arrangements, providing necessary documentation to the lender.

Closing Documents and Closing Day

The parties review and sign closing documents, including the deed, closing statement, and any financing documents. On the closing day, funds are transferred, and the property officially changes hands.

Recording and Possession

The deed and other relevant documents are recorded with the county recorder's office. The buyer takes possession of the property, and the transaction is complete.

Post-Closing Obligations

After closing, there may be post-closing obligations, such as notifying tenants, transferring utilities, and addressing any remaining details outlined in the contract.

Throughout this process, it's common for real estate professionals, attorneys, and other experts to be involved to ensure a smooth and legally compliant transaction. It's crucial for both buyers and sellers to work closely with professionals who understand Nevada's commercial real estate laws and regulations.

Due Diligence

Several common due diligence issues can arise during a commercial real estate deal. These issues often vary based on the type of property, its location, and the specific terms of the deal. Here are some general due diligence concerns:

Insufficient property maintenance or needed repairs can impact the property's value and operational efficiency.

Potential contamination or environmental hazards on the property may require further investigation and remediation.

Zoning restrictions and land use regulations can affect the property's intended use and development potential.

Unresolved title disputes, liens, or encumbrances may affect the transfer of ownership and create legal complications.

Scrutinizing existing leases for any undisclosed tenant issues, unmet obligations, or potential lease disputes is crucial.

Analyzing the property's financial records, including income, expenses, and projections, is essential to assess its financial health.

Changes in the local real estate market, economic conditions, or neighborhood development plans can impact the property's future value.

Ensuring compliance with building codes, ADA requirements, and other legal regulations is vital to avoid legal issues down the line.

Reviewing insurance coverage, understanding potential risks, and assessing the need for additional coverage is crucial.

Evaluating the stability and creditworthiness of existing tenants is important to gauge the property's income stability.

Examining existing contracts related to property management, service providers, or maintenance agreements is necessary.

For development projects, issues related to permits, approvals, and construction quality must be thoroughly investigated.

Navigating these due diligence issues requires collaboration among various professionals, including real estate attorneys, environmental consultants, property inspectors, and financial analysts. Conducting comprehensive due diligence helps mitigate risks and ensures a smoother commercial real estate transaction.
