  • Draft and compile deal summaries, underwriting packages, and due diligence documentation for Division review and corporate approval.
  • Review, redline, and help negotiate key transaction documents-including LOIs, PSAs, option and land bank agreements, and joint venture documents-in coordination with Legal, and identify, quantify, and recommend mitigants for the principal risks in each deal.
