Property law
COMMERCIAL PROPERTY
Legal advice for businesses, investors, lenders and property owners on the acquisition, disposal, financing and management of commercial property.
When should you seek legal advice?
You should consider involving a solicitor at an early stage of a commercial property transaction, particularly before signing heads of terms, making binding commitments or agreeing financing arrangements. Early advice can help identify title, planning, leasing, tax or funding issues before they affect the transaction.
What should you do now?
Gather the key commercial terms, property details, financing information and any draft heads of terms or agreements. Let your solicitor know the proposed timetable, the parties involved and whether the property is being acquired, sold, financed, developed or held as an investment.
