Once you retain our services - whether you are seeking to buy, sell or lease - requires the development of a search strategy if we are to find success. From that conversation - we search thru our extensive data base, we make lots of calls, and of course email our base. Once a property is located we update you on what we have, and if acceptable to you we progress to the next series of steps.
Scenario #1: With your input we prepare a simple - but direct "Letter of Intent", to the other party with your terms and requests. We submit to the property owner or its representative, then kick off the negotiation process.
Scenario #2: With your input, we can prepare a very detailed Letter of Intent to Purchase which we present to the other party. After any negotiation and finalizing of the "LOI" we are then in position to proceed to the formal "Purchase and Sale Agreement" prepared by your attorney, for review and signature by the other party. When finally accepted, then the due diligence period begins.
Scenario #3: An alternative is for us to use the "Florida Bar Approved Commercial Real Estate Purchase Contract" after negotiations and signatures this Contract can govern the deal - or can be the worksheet for an attorney to prepare a formal Purchase & Sale Contract. The Florida Bar contract is pre-printed and approved by the State of Florida. We just fill in blank spaces. Florida has available a “Property Disclosure Form” that is not mandatory - but we would encourage Sellers to complete the form. Going forward the Disclosure answers many buyers questions - and also minimizes the chance of the seller unintentionally misinforming the buyer.
