Investing in, developing, occupying and funding real estate assets has never been more complex. The asset class has established its place as a key element of the investment strategies of many of the world’s most significant owners, investors and lenders who are looking domestically and well beyond their domestic borders.
The increasing demand for real estate investment, whether commercial, industrial, residential, or infrastructure-related, has attracted a new wave of international players to the market.
Our global real estate team provides comprehensive support across the full spectrum of transactions and projects, from single-asset deals to multijurisdictional portfolio transactions and urban regeneration initiatives. We work across all asset classes, including commercial, residential, industrial and logistics, retail, build-to-rent, social and affordable housing, hotels and leisure, infrastructure and energy, and have unmatched experience in mixed use development and ownership. We also advise on alternative assets, such as data centres, life sciences facilities, and other emerging asset classes which are reshaping the market. Our clients range from real estate developers and owners to REITs, private capital (including equity funds) and institutional and alternative lenders, as well as other debt and equity capital providers.
We advise on every aspect of real estate law, covering acquisitions and dispositions, joint ventures, asset management, funds, tax, financing and development. Our experience also extends to complex ownership and leasing structures, condominium and mixed-use projects, restructurings, and distressed asset workouts.
