Overview

CaseMark's Commercial RE LOI skill automates the drafting of Letters of Intent for commercial real estate purchase transactions. It produces a comprehensive, professionally structured LOI covering purchase price, earnest money, due diligence, financing contingencies, closing mechanics, and critical binding provisions like confidentiality and exclusivity. The output is ready for attorney review and client negotiation.

Drafting Letters of Intent for commercial real estate transactions is a repetitive yet detail-intensive task. Attorneys must ensure every critical term—from earnest money mechanics to exclusivity periods—is properly addressed, while clearly distinguishing binding from non-binding provisions. Missing a key provision or using inconsistent language can delay deals, create unintended obligations, or weaken negotiating positions.

CaseMark's AI-powered LOI drafting skill transforms deal term inputs into a comprehensive, professionally structured Letter of Intent in minutes. The generated LOI follows market-standard conventions with clearly delineated binding and non-binding sections, state-specific compliance flags, and customizable contingency provisions—letting attorneys focus on deal strategy rather than document assembly.

Questions

What type of transactions is this LOI designed for?

CaseMark's Commercial RE LOI skill is designed for U.S. commercial real estate purchase transactions, including office, retail, industrial, multifamily, and mixed-use properties. It covers the full spectrum of deal terms from purchase price through closing mechanics.

Does the LOI include both binding and non-binding provisions?

Yes. CaseMark drafts the LOI as expressly non-binding with clearly enumerated binding provisions, specifically confidentiality and exclusivity (no-shop) clauses. This follows standard market practice for commercial real estate LOIs.

Can I customize the due diligence and financing contingency terms?

Absolutely. CaseMark allows you to specify due diligence duration, scope checklists, financing type and terms, or indicate an all-cash transaction with proof-of-funds language. Every contingency is fully customizable to match your deal structure.

Does the LOI account for state-specific requirements?

CaseMark flags state-specific items with clear markers so you can confirm provisions against local custom and practice. While the LOI targets general U.S. transaction standards, these flags ensure you don't overlook jurisdiction-specific considerations.

How does this compare to manually drafting an LOI?

Manually drafting a commercial real estate LOI typically takes 1-3 hours of attorney time. CaseMark generates a comprehensive, professionally structured LOI in approximately 12 minutes, freeing you to focus on deal strategy and negotiation rather than document assembly.

Can I use this for seller-financed transactions?

Yes. CaseMark's LOI skill accommodates various consideration structures including all-cash, conventional debt financing, and seller financing arrangements. You simply specify the financing structure in your deal terms and the AI drafts the appropriate provisions.
