Property development

Approach

Our team of highly skilled property solicitors understand the risks and key issues associated with development transactions.

They will help you to acquire a development site and negotiate and implement a land purchase agreement that will protect you in utilising the land to generate maximum return on investment. Our Property team can also assist home builders in acquiring land and land sellers.

Planning for any eventuality is crucial, therefore our solicitors ensure that the contract fully reflects your objectives and protects you from any risks should the development not go to plan, including issues such as planning permission denial.

Our team of solicitors can also advise you on dealing with site set up following a purchase, sale or lease of the completed units on the development to the end buyers.

In addition, they can also provide you with legal support in securing any funding requirements, including advising on bank funding to purchase or fund the development and forward funding or forward purchase arrangements.
