Success Story - $9.9 Million Dollar Purchase of Packaged Multi-Unit Properties

Commercial Real Estate • April 18, 2025


Background:
Lavelle Law represented a joint venture in its $9.9 Million acquisition of four multi-unit buildings.


Challenges:
The transaction was complicated due to the nature of the joint venture, vacant units, turnover of security deposits, and existing building code violations.


Result:
The purchase was successful despite tough negotiations with the seller’s team. All leases and security deposits were transferred to the buyer, and Lavelle Law effectively represented the buyer in removing the building code violations on the property.
