Redevelopment

There is no such thing as “simple” when it comes to redevelopment in New Jersey.  Since the New Jersey Supreme Court’s decision in Gallenthin Realty Dev., Inc. v. Borough of Paulsboro, 191 N.J. 344 (2007), the world of redevelopment has been substantially altered.  

Bisgaier Hoff is the choice for the most complex and challenging redevelopment plans being proposed today. We handle the legal work for all facets of the pre-construction process, as well as approved projects that are underway.

We provide a vital role in contract negotiation and development, leasing, taxes, real estate transaction work, financing, leasing, permitting and, most importantly, municipal approvals.

Bisgaier Hoff navigates clients through receiving or challenging redevelopment designations, displacement of property owners, eminent domain, negotiating property tax abatements, and a labyrinth of state mandated procedures, such as environmental, regulatory and permitting.

Our experience includes:

• Brownfield redevelopment, ensuring our clients are aware of government funding that supports remediation of environmentally impacted properties.
• Policy, laws, taxes and other financial impacts related to redevelopment
• Assisting property owners to resist designations of blight and condemnation, thus preserving real estate value for sale or negotiation through eminent domain
