Regeneration & Housebuilders Legal Services
The housing industry is changing.
From the stamp duty holiday to new regulations and new methods of construction (MMC), the rapid changes facing housebuilders and developers, have presented the industry with both risks and opportunities.
We will work with you and your business to understand your needs and work with you to capitalise on these opportunities, whilst mitigating risks.
We support both public and private sectors, including landowners, developers, public authorities, housing associations investors and banks, and draw expertise from our colleagues in construction, real estate, planning and corporate to ensure we’re consistently giving you clear, accurate advice. We have established a niche reputation for project work for developers in areas of urban renewal, regeneration and mixed-use development and have advised on some of the largest regeneration schemes in the country. We have considerable experience in dealing with the legal issues that can arise with such schemes and have a dedicated development sales team to help with marketing projects on an international scale.
We can support you on any regeneration and housebuilding project. These typically include:
- appropriate funding for the acquisition of land or opportunity
- an appropriate structure to reduce tax through joint ventures and other strategic alliances.
- the master planning and planning processes
- procurement of construction and consultancy engagements.
