Dave Cantu focuses on commercial real estate transactions, which includes acquisition, development and sales, financing and lending, leases and leasing, low-income housing tax credit development and financing, tax-exempt and bond financing, and corporate, partnership and limited liability organizations. He is licensed to practice in both Washington and Florida.
After spending most of his life in Seattle and practicing law there for nearly twenty years, Dave celebrated Y2K by establishing the East Coast office of PCS in Clearwater, Florida. This has facilitated his work on commercial real estate transactions in many states across the country. Most of Dave’s principal clients have been with him for twenty-five years or more and many of those have been working with him since the early 1980’s.
In 1978, Dave graduated with a B.A. in both Government and Philosophy from the University of Notre Dame, where he was also named a Notre Dame Scholar. He attended Cornell University Law School where he received his J.D. in 1981.
Dave played tennis in college and his last job before becoming a lawyer in 1981 was teaching tennis in Bellevue, Washington. After he moved to Florida, he put his athletic abilities to work coaching his five sons in soccer. Now that most of them are grown, he is working on his Grandparenting skills.
