HOLLAND & KNIGHT’S REAL ESTATE PRACTICE IS AT THE FOREFRONT OF:
REAL ESTATE FINANCE
Real estate finance is a core strength of our Real Estate practice, as demonstrated by our significant track record within the national real estate finance space.
RETAIL
Holland & Knight has one of the strongest retail practices nationwide. As other retail law firms abandon their focus on the retail sector, we are even more committed to it and continue to organize our retail practice around the needs of clients to fit their business services and structure.
HOSPITALITY
We have a focus on the hotel and hospitality industry, with particular emphasis on hotel and mixed-use communities. We advise hotel owners and developers of mixed-use resort and urban communities domestically and in the emerging markets of Asia, the Middle East and Latin America.
REIT REPRESENTATION
Our broad representation of clients who invest in real estate portfolios ensures that we are well equipped to handle all types of real estate investment trust matters. We also are proficient and have significant experience in representing REITs that invest primarily in mortgage loan practices.
LOW-INCOME HOUSING TAX CREDITS
Since the inception of low-income housing tax credits in 1975, Holland & Knight has represented syndicators, developers, broker-dealers and equity investors in structuring, negotiating and documenting tax-advantaged equity investments in all types of real estate throughout the U.S. As a result, we have developed extensive knowledge about low-income housing tax credits and the tax and business problems that can arise in structuring tax-advantaged transactions.
ENVIRONMENTAL AND LAND USE
Our land use and environmental attorneys have experience guiding clients through the land use approval process. We were one of the first law firms with certified LEED-accredited (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) attorneys, and we can provide sound advice to clients on green building, environmentally sustainable construction and performance issues. We act as advocates on our clients’ behalf in front of governmental entities, including city councils, planning commissions, county commissions, redevelopment agencies, and state and federal environmental agencies.
