There are many legal issues that commercial real estate practitioners face on a regular basis. This course will familiarize you with many of those potential issues, explore the so-called “bundle of rights” associated with real estate ownership, and the contractual agreements used to create and transfer those rights. Then, analyze the emerging trends in municipal land use regulation and public-private partnerships to gain a better understanding of the policy tools government entities rely upon to stimulate, control and tax real estate development. After completing this course, you’ll be in a better position to identify and evaluate potential legal problems involved in complex commercial real estate development and investment transactions.
