Partner

Britney's practice focuses on real estate transactions, particularly leasing, purchase and sale, and development transactions. She focuses on the full cycle of commercial real estate transactions, from acquisition to development to leasing and ultimately disposition. In particular, Britney frequently navigates complex real estate deal structures, including the purchase and sale of real estate contract rights, land assemblages and multi-party development matters. She enjoys the challenge of working with clients on developing successful and executable plans of action, no matter the size of the transaction. Her clients praise her for her understanding of their businesses and business needs, and for maintaining value for them in her work.

Britney handles all types of leasing matters for a variety of market sectors, including office, retail, and industrial leasing, as well as ground leasing. Her day-to-day leasing work ranges from portfolio management to large single-tenant assets. Her vast experience in leasing gives her a broad market perspective that enables her to take unique and complicated issues and turn them into successful solutions for her clients.

Britney also works with clients on the purchase and sale of real estate from both the seller and buyer sides, including vacant land, redevelopment opportunities and existing office, retail, and industrial properties, on both an individual property and portfolio basis. She has a complete understanding of purchase and sale transactions and takes a hands-on approach to all aspects of these transactions, from due diligence, survey and title insurance matters, to the closing of escrow.

Britney's experience on all sides of commercial real estate transactions gives her real world market insight and practical solutions to accomplish her clients' goals.
