Negotiating Key Provisions in Joint-Venture, Permanent Loan & Restructuring Agreements

July 25-26

Course Overview

This two-day course will focus on understanding and negotiating the most important provisions in three of the most important agreements a real estate developer or investor will sign:  Equity Joint-Venture Agreements, Permanent Loan Agreements, and Loan Restructuring Agreements.   The format of the course is very hands-on:  attendees will spend approximately 3 hours discussing the most important business issues in each agreement with prominent real estate attorneys who specialize in the construction of such agreements.  Attendees will alternate between assuming the role of the developer and the role of the counter-party.  Discussion of each agreement will end with attendees engaging in a 1.5 hour negotiation, represented by counsel.    Due to this specialized format of instruction, enrollment in the course is limited. This course involves advance preparation to be completed prior to working with the attorneys in class.
