Thomas C. Rogers

Tom Rogers has been representing parties to commercial real estate transactions and financings since 1982. He has represented sellers, purchasers, landlords, tenants and lenders within the Pennsylvania, Delaware and New Jersey region, as well as nationally. His extensive experience enables Tom to solve complex transactional problems practically and efficiently.

Tom’s practice is generally comprised of two aspects. The first is representing clients in the purchase and sale of all types of commercial real estate. This includes the purchase and sale of office buildings, warehouse/industrial properties, retail properties, vacant land for future development and other commercial real estate. He handles all aspects including the transaction documentation, title and survey issues, tenant issues, environmental issues, including “brownfield” aspects, reciprocal and other easements, and local approvals.

Another significant portion of Tom’s practice is representing lenders in commercial real estate loans. Tom’s clients range from national insurance companies and other similar financial institutions to smaller, regional banks. He represents clients in the full range of commercial real estate lending, including acquisition loans, construction loans and permanent loans, including non-recourse and partial-recourse loans for large lenders.

Tom is often asked by clients to handle their most sophisticated transactions including complex construction loans and multi-state/multi-property portfolio loans. His extensive experience also includes loan restructurings, workouts and, when needed, exercising remedies including confessions of judgment, sheriff’s sales and deeds-in-lieu of foreclosure.

Tom lends his extensive experience to both clients and others by frequently speaking on a number of real estate topics, including developments in real estate law, title insurance, mechanics' liens, foreclosures and other real estate remedies. He has also coordinated client in-house programs for their underwriters, lenders and loan administrators to keep them abreast of the important real estate law issues confronting them and to help train newer loan officers.
