INTRODUCTION TO
REAL ESTATE LAW, NEGOTIATIONS, AND APPROVALS
A NEW EXECUTIVE EDUCATION COURSE OFFERED BY THE KNIGHT PROGRAM IN COMMUNITY
BUILDING JAN. 20-21, 2006
DECEMBER 15,
2005 -- Introduction to Real Estate Law, Negotiations, and Approvals,
held January 20-21, 2006 on the Coral Gables campus of the University of Miami,
is an intensive introduction to the subject and part of a series of executive
education courses offered by the Knight Program in Community Building at the
University of Miami School of Architecture. This course combines real estate
development with the School of Architecture’s expertise in New Urbanism.
Law,
negotiations, and approvals are fundamental aspects of the real estate
development process, both within the private sector and between the private,
public, and nonprofit sectors. The concerns of those involved have often
collided in the wake of rapid growth and shifts in settlement patterns.
Resulting court cases and legislation have sought to protect quality of life,
the environment, the interests of property owners, and the rights of developers.
This intensive
seminar examines the statutory provisions which have, over the past two decades,
attempted to balance competing concerns: those faced by developers of
residential and commercial projects and those posed by the public’s growing
sensitivity to ecology and the demand for adequate schools, roads, and open
space.
