Heitner Kaufman represents buyers and sellers, as well as lessors and lessees, in both residential and commercial real estate transactions. Recognizing that the purchase or sale of a home can be the most significant transaction in someone's life, we provide highly personalized attention to ensure our clients fully understand and are comfortable with every aspect of their transaction. Our dedicated team of skilled staff and attorneys is always on hand to guide clients through every phase of the process, from selecting a broker and negotiating deals to handling contract preparation or negotiations, addressing title issues, and managing closing and any subsequent post-closing matters. We are experienced in handling a wide range of transactions, from the most modest to the acquisition and sale of multi-million dollar homes, condominiums, cooperatives, and commercial buildings.

A significant portion of our practice is also dedicated to commercial leasing, where we represent both landlords and tenants. As counsel for tenants, we have successfully negotiated leases with nearly all of the major landlords in the United States. Our firm also provides representation to co-op sponsors and co-op boards, addressing a comprehensive array of issues related to cooperative apartments.

Unfortunately, not all real estate transactions proceed smoothly, and some may lead to litigation. We possess extensive experience in real estate litigation, including the enforcement of contracts, time-of-essence demands, fraudulent conveyances, and related disputes, ensuring our clients are well-represented in these challenging situations.
