You found the space. Now work through the opening.
The lease starts before the buildout is finished. The contractor’s schedule assumes permits are ready. The business cannot open until the space is ready for its intended use.
Who carries the cost if one step slips?
We read the property, construction, and related agreements together so you can address the dependencies while terms are still being negotiated. The rent and purchase price belong beside the costs of getting into the space and operating there.

Put the obligations on the same timeline.
We start with what you intend to do at the property and when it needs to happen. A practical review follows the sequence: access, diligence, approvals, funding, construction, possession, and operation.
Depending on the assignment, the work may produce:
A reviewed or negotiated purchase agreement or lease.
A summary of material costs, conditions, and decision dates.
Construction or consultant agreements and change documents.
A list of required consents and responsibilities within the engagement.
Closing, assignment, or amendment documents.
Contractor licensing information is one part of project diligence. California’s Contractors State License Board provides a public license-status and complaint-disclosure lookup. That record should be considered alongside the contract and project information. CSLB license lookup.
