Ed Puerta represents developers, purchasers, sellers, landlords and tenants of commercial, retail and industrial properties around the country and investors and stakeholders in both simple and complex property transactions.My focusAcquisitions, dispositions and financingRepresenting purchasers and sellers of real property is a key aspect of my practice, and includes working with developers, health systems, real estate investors and not-for-profits.

I am proud to have worked on and closed more than $1 billion in projects to create and preserve quality housing in urban and suburban areas around the country. This area involves a web of interaction between developers, owners, investors and government agencies before results can be seen. Locally, I serve as outside counsel to the Long Island Housing Partnership, a not-for-profit with nearly forty years’ experience developing, rehabilitating and sustaining affordable housing on Long Island.LeasingCommercial, industrial and healthcare leasing is another core area of my practice. I work with both landlords and tenants to negotiate, draft and amend space agreements of almost every nature.
