Senior Paralegal – Real Estate Finance

If you’ve worked real estate finance deals, you know the difference between paper-pushing and actually running a file.

This role sits on the right side of that.

• Exposure to multi-property and structured transactions

• Team that works well together - low friction, high standards

• Hybrid schedule with a stable DC office presence

• Real opportunity to grow within a respected practice

What You’ll Be Doing

• Prepare and organize closing documents for active transactions

• Draft loan and assignment documents

• Conduct due diligence and review organizational materials

• Coordinate with title companies; review title, survey, and zoning

• Manage closing logistics and post-closing deliverables

• Prepare UCC filings and maintain deal files

• Support multiple deals simultaneously with accuracy

What You Bring

• 3 years as a paralegal in real estate finance or transactional law

• Experience supporting commercial lending transactions

• Strong understanding of closings and deal flow

• Experience reviewing title and survey materials

• Detail-oriented and able to manage multiple priorities

• Strong communication with attorneys and deal teams

Nice to Have

• Exposure to multifamily, CMBS, or agency lending (Fannie / Freddie)

If you’re a paralegal who likes being in the middle of active deals - not on the sidelines - this is a strong opportunity.
