Real Estate Practice and Drafting

3 units

Enrollment limit: 20. This course will be a theory and practice course, combining the study of substantive law with practical application, drafting and problem solving. Students taking this course will get an exposure to common issues arising in residential and commercial real estate transactions. Throughout the course, students will be asked to discuss and role play the relative positions and motivations of the seller and purchaser, or lessor and lessee, as applicable, in an acquisition, financing or lease of residential or commercial real estate. Attendance and preparation will be required. The final grade will be based on class participation, drafting assignments and projects throughout the course, and either a final project or a final exam. [Due to substantial coverage overlap, students who have taken Commercial Real Estate Practice and Drafting cannot also receive credit for this course.]
