What is the average Indemnity CAP a seller should quote , for a Hospital Setup. We are giving away our hospital of 200 beds to investor
David H.
Hello, my name is David hatch I am a Michigan license attorney. This question has several nuances to it. An investor is taking it over, it sounds like you're giving it to them but it's also being sold? That is unclear. It would be helpful to understand what type of indemnity the investor is seeking. It really depends upon the value of the property and the risk involved in the deal. Please let me know if you like additional assistance beyond this. I can help you out. Attorney Dave.

Financing Agreement
New York
What legal considerations should I be aware of when engaging in cross-border financing?
I am a business owner based in the United States, and I am exploring opportunities to expand my operations into other countries. As part of this expansion, I am considering obtaining financing from international lenders or investors. However, I am unsure about the legal implications and potential challenges associated with cross-border financing. I am particularly interested in understanding the regulatory frameworks, tax implications, and any potential risks that I should be aware of before proceeding with such financing arrangements.
Arthur S.
The answer to this question is too voluminous for this format. The governing laws, rules, regulations, etc of each foreign jurisdiction must be taken into consideration prior to entering into a "cross border" financing transaction. Every lender focuses on its exit strategy in the event a loan becomes a non-performing loan...and it is incumbent upon the borrower to fully explore and understand these "exit" strategies.. I would also emphasize the need to fully understand the scope of borrower's obligations under the underwriting scope and requirements of the lender, as well as the several types of loan guarantees that may be required by the lender in any such cross-border financings.
Commercial Real Estate
Purchase Agreement
Washington
Are purchase agreements confidential?
I recently made an offer to purchase a commercial property and the seller has asked me to sign a purchase agreement. I am unfamiliar with the terms of the agreement and want to make sure that it is kept confidential. I am concerned about the potential for the details of the purchase agreement to be publicly disclosed and want to know if purchase agreements are confidential.
Merry K.
I hope that you used the assistance of a WA State commercial real estate attorney to advise you in the writing and presentation of your offer to purchase a commercial property, as these can be extremely complicated. (Or, at the very least, I hope you were represented by an experienced and knowledgeable buyer's agent). To my knowledge, this type of PSA agreement is not required to be confidential unless you included that language in your offer. Please be aware that once the sale closes, the amount of the purchase price will be public information, in county records.
Commercial Real Estate
Building Lease
Arizona
Can a landlord increase the rent on a commercial building lease without providing notice or justification?
I have been leasing a commercial building for my business for the past three years, and recently, my landlord informed me of a significant increase in the monthly rent. However, there was no prior notice or explanation given for this sudden increase, and I am concerned about the legality of such action. I want to know if the landlord has the right to raise the rent without providing any notice or justification, and what options I have to address this issue if it is indeed unfair or unlawful.
David U.
In a vacuum, a landlord should not have a unilateral right to raise rent. A landlord may have the right to raise rents periodically, pursuant to the lease document. It is very much a contract issue. It depends on the exact wording of the lease agreement. The lease agreement will also detail the requirements for valid notification concerning the agreement. My experience over 25 years of practice is that most building lease agreements expressly provide for base rent to increase each year. A court will enforce most reasonable rental, escalation, clauses, and lease agreements. If there is no obvious language in the lease, the question becomes whether rental increase is implied under the wording of the document or an amendment to it. At the risk of being repetitive, it depends on what the lease says, if anything at all.

Commercial Lease
California
What is a commercial lease agreement and how does it work?
I am a business owner interested in renting a commercial space for my business. I am trying to understand the details of a commercial lease agreement and how it works so I can make an informed decision about whether or not to sign a lease. I am looking for information about the terms, conditions, and other relevant details that could affect my business.
MICHAEL B.
A commercial lease agreement sets out the parameters of the space to be leased, including a description of the premises, an allocation of responsibilities for janitorial services, electrical services, tenant improvements, insurance requirements, payment of rent and payment of common area expenses, parking for employees and visitors, telephone and telecommunication services and many other issues.
Quick, user friendly and one of the better ways I've come across to get ahold of lawyers willing to take new clients.
