Real estate

The real estate sector forms a core part of Fladgate’s business. Our lawyers are able to utilise their considerable insight and experience to deliver advice that is robust, commercial and technically expert. We advise on all the key issues affecting the property industry including regeneration and development schemes, investment, funding, construction matters, property disputes, portfolio management, planning, taxation and the creation of corporate structures.

In addition to our core property team, we have a number of specialists in the areas of construction, planning, environmental, property finance, management and property litigation. We are also able to draw on the considerable skills of our corporate and tax groups to provide advice on sale and acquisition structuring, both onshore and offshore, stamp duty, stamp duty land tax and VAT planning.

This cross-firm expertise provides us with the depth of resource to support sophisticated transactions including those involving complex tax savings structures and offshore elements or those with attendant regulatory requirements. With the increasing trend towards globalisation, we are also able to utilise our extensive international experience and contacts to complete cross-border transactions for a diverse range of companies.

Our in-depth understanding of the issues and practicalities involved within the real estate sector enables us to undertake complex transactions for a client base that includes multinationals, major institutions and listed companies, clearing banks, lenders, developers and entrepreneurs.
