How We Help
Ownership planning for LaSalle commercial property.
We assist with holding structures, investor and co-owner agreements, joint ventures, bare trust documents, lender requirements, refinancing, family planning, and ownership changes.
LaSalle commercial property ownership should be planned before closing so the structure supports the property, financing, business use, and family or investor expectations. A client may be buying a local commercial building, service property, income asset, or a property connected to an operating company. The ownership plan should explain who owns the property, who contributes funds, who signs financing documents, who receives income, who manages expenses, and how decisions about refinancing, sale, transfers, and exits will be made.
Goldstone Law PC helps LaSalle clients prepare ownership documents that are clear enough to guide the property after closing. We review the purchase agreement, proposed ownership names, lender instructions, accountant guidance, investor notes, and intended use. We then help prepare or review title directions, corporate approvals, co-owner agreements, joint venture terms, bare trust or nominee documents, signing authority records, and closing instructions.
For LaSalle clients, written ownership planning can be especially useful where family members, business partners, corporations, or investors are involved. A good agreement can address repairs, rent, expenses, insurance, bank accounts, management authority, capital contributions, recordkeeping, refinancing approvals, sale rights, and buyouts. It can also help with succession planning or future transfers when a property is tied to a family business.
We also help coordinate the ownership plan with lender and accountant advice. A lender may require specific borrowers, guarantors, corporate documents, or title insurance. An accountant may recommend a corporation, holding company, trust arrangement, or other planning structure for tax, HST, income reporting, or family reasons.
Clear ownership documents give LaSalle owners a reliable record before expectations harden. They help keep future decisions about money, control, and exits grounded in a written plan.
That plan can also make later conversations with lenders, accountants, family members, investors, and buyers more direct and less confusing.
It keeps the structure easier to explain.

How It Works
A careful process for ownership structuring.
We help define the ownership plan, coordinate tax and lender input, prepare clear documents, and carry the structure through closing or refinancing.
Step 1
Map the ownership plan
We review who is involved, who contributes funds, who benefits from the property, and what authority each owner should have.
Step 2
Coordinate advice
We consider accountant and lender guidance where ownership affects tax, HST, land transfer tax, guarantees, title insurance, or mortgage documents.
Step 3
Prepare documents
We draft or review co-owner agreements, joint venture terms, corporate approvals, trust documents, and closing directions.
Step 4
Align closing
We help ensure registration, mortgage documents, signatures, funds, and final reporting reflect the chosen ownership structure.

Common Questions
Questions about LaSalle property ownership structuring.
Should a LaSalle commercial property be owned personally or through a corporation?
That depends on tax, liability, financing, income, and long-term goals. We help coordinate the legal structure with accountant advice.
Do LaSalle co-owners need a written agreement?
Yes. A written agreement should cover contributions, voting, expenses, income, repairs, refinancing, sale rights, default, and buyouts.
Can family business property be documented?
Yes. We can help document ownership, authority, expenses, income, succession planning, buyouts, and future transfers.
Can an operating business use property owned by a holding company?
Sometimes. The arrangement should be coordinated with accountant and lender advice and documented clearly.
Can investor exits be addressed in advance?
Yes. Written agreements can address buyouts, sale rights, refinancing, default, voting, and what happens if an investor leaves.
Can a nominee or bare trust be used?
Sometimes. These arrangements should be documented carefully and reviewed for tax, lender, disclosure, and reporting requirements.
When should the ownership plan be finalized?
Ideally before closing, so title directions, mortgage documents, guarantees, signing authority, and owner agreements all match.
Can you review an existing ownership arrangement?
Yes. We can review title, corporate records, trust documents, co-owner agreements, mortgage documents, and proposed restructuring steps.
