Overview

In 30-plus years of facilitating commercial and residential development, the real estate attorneys of McBrayer, have handled every type of project. They know the key players and the process. They know the pitfalls and the solutions. They know the difference between legal efficiency and legal shortcuts.

Our firm provides comprehensive counsel and representation to real estate developers, construction firms, colleges, businesses, nonprofit entities and other stakeholders. We have shepherded hundreds of development projects throughout Kentucky and beyond, including complex, multimillion-dollar properties.

Commercial and Residential Development

Clients come to us because of our reputation for making deals, getting approvals and following through all the way to completion. We tailor our services to meet clients' goals, not vice versa. Our large staff of lawyers can capably address all facets of real estate development:

• Negotiation of land acquisition
• Title examinations and due diligence
• Environmental compliance
• Site plans and infrastructure planning
• Tax increment financing for rehabilitated properties
• Planning and zoning approvals
• Construction contracts
• Real estate financing
• Formation of ownership entities
• Land contracts and leases

Our projects have covered a wide spectrum: restaurants, supermarkets, retail properties and shopping centers, apartment buildings, condominiums, hotels, student housing, affordable housing, residential subdivisions, office buildings and medical complexes.

Experience that Matters

We have cultivated relationships with banks and private equity lenders, building contractors, design professionals and elected officials at the local, state and federal levels. We regularly partner with national companies that need our credibility and connections to win approval from local government bodies.

We get results because of our size and diversity. For example, when the developers of an apartment complex wanted an on-site eatery with alcoholic beverages, we had the legal ability in-house to obtain a liquor license and other regulatory approvals. Our clients rarely have to go outside the McBrayer firm to attain their goals.
