Development Sales Legal Services
Sales are the driving force of any house-builder. The speed of response to reservations and any problems that may arise during the sales process is critical.
The property market is highly competitive, with an ever-changing regulatory environment that makes every sale seemingly more complex than it has been in the past. Coupled with further pressures arising from COVID-19 and Brexit – a fast turnaround on your investment has never been more crucial. Whether you are a house-builder, developer or housing association, those who can adapt working practices and improve efficiency in the current climate will be in a strong position for the years ahead.
Our team will work alongside you, not just as a service provider, to advise you at every stage. We support your projects from start to finish by working alongside our development acquisition, planning and construction teams. Our extensive experience and depth of knowledge allows us to understand the logistics involved in a transaction, the issues that may arise and respond appropriately, ensuring your developments progress to completion swiftly and allowing you to focus on what you do best.
Our team works with national house builders through to niche property developers, across a variety of projects of varying size and shapes. We can advise on appropriate legal and management structures for a development project to help you deliver on both residential and mixed-use developments. We can support you with sales on joint venture schemes, the government backed Help to Buy scheme as well as part-exchanges and resales.
We recognise no development is the same, and whatever the size of your business or project, our insight will be tailored to you.
