Forward thinking and commercial in our approach, with a recognised ability to deliver complex deals, we handle the entire property ‘life-cycle’ from the initial acquisition, development, leasing, joint venturing and financing through to the final exit.
Whether you are a lender, developer, investor, owner or occupier, and whether you are planning to develop a hotel, resort, serviced apartment, casino, theme park, our real estate department can advise you on all legal requirements related to this sector.
Bringing together industry knowledge and technical expertise from across our offices, our partners take a commercial approach to help your business and investments work for you. We have a deep knowledge of the domestic laws and we advised several owners, investors and financiers in the hotels and leisure sector, covering management contracts, sale-and-manage backs, single asset acquisitions, single country portfolio deals and cross-border portfolio deals.
Buying and selling real estate for investment purposes has become more complex and is often structured in a complex fashion, featuring cross-border elements. Leading global investors, developers, occupiers and financial institutions with major space requirements choose us to advise on their largest and most complex real estate transactions and disputes.
As well as mainstream real estate work, we advise on opportunities for tax efficiency, complex investment structures, property finance, innovative financing methods, the impact of environmental issues, construction and planning aspects, and corporate structures.
Our real estate group is closely linked to the specialist expertise provided by our tax, finance and corporate advisors, areas that are often integral to the structuring of major real estate projects.
We also assist international and local clients in obtaining concession and construction permits from the relevant authorities of the country where we operate.
