Akerman Real Estate Practice Group Partner Janis K. Cheezem authored "Drafting and Negotiating Mixed-Use Purchase and Sale Agreements" for LexisNexis Practical Guidance, offering a comprehensive framework for navigating the unique complexities of buying or selling a single component of a mixed-use development.
Janis’s practical guidance observes how shared infrastructure, cross-easements, cost-sharing arrangements, and recorded covenants mean that a buyer or seller can face significant exposure that differs from single use projects. The piece guides practitioners through contract terms and project-wide due diligence to identify project based risks and includes practice points for both the purchase and sale agreement and in the due diligence phase.
