Jonathan S. Marcus is chair of the firm's Residential and Master Planned Communities Team. His practice includes residential community and commercial acquisitions, sales and development. Mr. Marcus currently represents many residential real estate developers, including several of the largest in the United States and South Florida, together with large local and national retail companies in the negotiation and drafting of complex purchase and sale agreements, financing documents, assorted easement and license agreements and the closing of such transactions.

Mr. Marcus also has significant experience in real estate lending representation that includes drafting and negotiating loan documents, closing hundreds of commercial real estate loans representing large institutional lenders in transactions ranging from acquisition, development, and construction loans for residential and commercial property to mini-perm and permanent loan transactions.
