Real estate moves on closings, financings, and consents that cannot be missed. Our practice is built for the documents and the deadlines.
BauHaus advises developers, sponsors, owners, lenders, and investors on commercial and mixed-use real estate matters across the United States and the European Union. From acquisition through disposition, we run the contracts, the diligence, and the closings that move buildings from balance sheet to balance sheet.
What we do
Acquisitions and dispositions. Joint ventures and co-investment structures. Construction and permanent debt financings. Leasing across office, industrial, retail, and mixed-use portfolios. Development agreements and ground leases. 1031 exchanges and like-kind structures. Real estate fund formation and investor documentation. Distressed asset workouts and receiverships. Regulatory and zoning advice.
How we use AI
Real estate is document-heavy: title commitments, surveys, lease abstracts, estoppels, SNDAs, and CC&Rs at scale. Our workflow ingests title and survey packages, lease portfolios, and loan documentation, producing comparative summaries, exception reports, and conditions-precedent trackers in days rather than weeks. The partner reviews every output before it leaves the firm.
Why BauHaus
Real estate transactions live on the closing date. Title objections, lender conditions, and tenant consents arrive late and need to be triaged fast. We are staffed to respond in hours, not days, with a partner who has closed comparable transactions personally.
Representative matters
