Attorneys advise Office of Housing staff and must be able to think creatively to analyze risks of complicated transactions with multiple players using both private and public funding. We work with elected officials, non-profit organizations, land use planners, and other government agencies whose mission is to increase affordable housing in the city of Seattle. We get to practice the law we most enjoy for a dynamic, world-class city. The Attorney will join a dedicated team of attorneys who combines their passion for law and social good. Job Responsibilities Transactions: Represent the Office of Housing in all aspects of real estate issues, including drafting OH's loan documents and reviewing other parties' loan documents; review of partnership agreements; review of title, survey, and other relevant documents.
