Due Diligence or Phase 1

Environmental liability underpins a successful business from deal making and development, financing, and risk management strategies. Consequently, the earlier you integrate environmental concerns into your project, the better.  Environmental liabilities impact far more than just the value of a property or a purchase price. They influence existing risks from on and off site players, impact your time to develop, the use of a property including existing and future property use restrictions, the likelihood of expediting entitlements, the CEQA process, carrying costs, requirements for moving soil, dewatering, etc.

In the redevelopment context, environmental liabilities create logistical issues that can impact project profitability and executability and that we can plan for given appropriate due diligence.

A poorly executed due diligence or Phase I process can upend property and project value and lead to significant downsides.
