Real Estate Finance and Investment

Economic recovery, high demand, and volatility in the equity markets continue to drive domestic and international capital into U.S. real estate assets. Strong capital influx provides new opportunities and creates fast-paced financing activities that require deep industry understanding and legal expertise.
