I’m looking to break into commercial real estate law (transactional) in Houston. I’m currently practicing community association law at a mid-size firm, but I have a background in real estate law (landlord/tenant litigation) and I’m also a licensed Realtor. I have some experience with drafting deeds, leases, promissory notes, etc…how difficult will it be to lateral?

Are there any firms in Houston that are hiring?

I have been talking to a recruiter for a little over a month about a position. I let her know out the gate that I really wasn’t looking to change jobs, but she just kept wanting to continuing the conversation. I didn’t have 2 interviews with the hiring coming and they know that I am not really looking to make a switch. They are now working on an offer letter and I know they’re going to offer me more money. I’m having my annual review this week. Any advice on how to handle a) job offer b) review?

I execute tasks from two investment advisors and two financial planners - they make the decisions of what should happen & I make it happen.

Anyone live with a general plat exception rather than insisting upon the title company specifying the matters on plat which constitute exceptions?
