Attorney breaks away from large firm to start new practice.

Challenge:

A successful attorney at a large law firm wanted to start his own law firm, however, it was imperative that he find affordable “Class A” office space in a very tight commercial real estate market, ideally not too far from LAX airport. Furthermore, he wanted to limit his upfront costs and expenses during the first 90 days because it was going to take at least three months before the new firm would be receiving billable fees from clients.

Success:

Aspire Realty Advisors initiated a proactive search in the limited geographic area he wanted his law firm to be located, and then setup a condensed schedule of showings in one afternoon. After our client narrowed his search down, we successfully negotiated with the property management company to get them to pay for all tenant improvements and to provide free rent for the first several months, which greatly helped our client manage and budget the law firm’s start-up costs.

Start-up consulting advice helps launch aspiring restaurateur.

Challenge:

An aspiring restauranteur who spent the last 5+ years working as a waiter in high-end restaurants wanted to create his own modern mountain themed tavern restaurant with unique food concepts, however, he didn’t have the expertise on how to properly form a legal entity, like an LLC, and how to buy an existing restaurant for sale.

Success:

Aspire Realty Advisors consulted with him and helped guide him through the drafting up his LLC Operating Agreement and Amendments to formalize his legal entity. We then helped him get his offer accepted on an existing restaurant bar in a prime Beach City location a block from the beach. We helped him navigate the escrow process and the complex ABC licensing process to get the Type 41 beer and wine license transferred into his LLC’s name.

First-time home buyer needs quick action

Buyer’s first Realtor® was pushing her to make above-list-price offers.

Challenge:

The National Association of Realtors states that nine in 10 home buyers today rely on the internet as one of their primary research sources. One first-time buyer began her search process online and even chose an agent from an ad on the site she was using for her search. The agent provided her with poor guidance and suggested all offers be above the asking price. In one case the home had been on the market for over two months. The buyer eventually lost confidence in her agent and became increasingly confused about the search and buying processes. She wanted an agent that would help her better understand the process and secure a favorable deal on a great property.

Success:

Fortunately for this buyer, she shared her recent home buying experience with a REALTOR® from Aspire Realty Advisors. We quickly initiated a proactive search in her desired geographic areas with her necessary parameters and price points. Within a few weeks we were able to open escrow on her future home, at below-list-price for a nearly identical property that her original agent was trying to get her to offer over asking price. Aspire Realty not only helped our first-time buyer save over seven percent on the purchase price, but also helped her find a reliable lender as well.

They brought their business concept with them.

Challenge:

Los Angeles County is the most populous county in the country with something for everyone.  However, the cost of living and other factors may not necessarily always be ideal.  One family made the bold decision to move to Riverside County and to replicate their business, a Taekwondo studio, there as well.  They need help finding a suitable location to achieve this.

Success:

We presented them with a few possible locations and they became enamored with one in a new development in particular.  We assisted them in their negotiations for a lease at the location which will be delivered in the summer of 2019.
