Commercial Real Estate Services

Acquisitions & Divestitures

HSSW handles the acquisition and disposition of projects, as well as complex, multi-project and portfolio transactions. We have the resources to swiftly and efficiently execute deals that vary in complexity and geography. Our clients include developers, financial institutions, insurance companies and other investors, landlords, tenants and operators.

Development

HSSW represents both investors and developers engaged in the development and leasing of real estate projects, including office, retail, industrial and multifamily housing projects.

Financing

Developers, investors, owners and lenders alike look to HSSW for financing expertise. The lending market is a competitive arena with a variety of financing methods available to borrowers. We advise clients about venture capital, equity and special opportunity investments, mezzanine loans, structured finance, and recapitalizations and restructuring of properties and entities.

Leasing

HSSW represents both landlords and tenants in the facilitation and execution of commercial leases. We understand the complexities of lease negotiations from both perspectives and put our decades of experience to work overcoming challenges and finalizing the deal. Our team operates in the most efficient and sensible manner possible to ensure that leasing opportunities are not missed.

Workouts

The most efficient resolution for an asset in default is not litigation or bankruptcy. When advisable, we seek a negotiated, voluntary settlement that protects our clients’ portfolios. Our team facilitates workouts of credits of all sizes and levels of complexity, from single-asset real estate loans and commercial loans to local or regional companies and from multi-bank credits to major national real estate and operating companies. Workouts vary from traditional economic restructurings or collateral recovery to "liquidation" workouts or "prepackaged bankruptcy plans."
