Charlotte Whitworth| Partner, Co-Head of Corporate Real Estate
Corporate structures need to be created and evolved efficiently in order to expand and manage any physical asset portfolio. We provide practical advice for companies, individuals, investors and banks. We can help you secure the long-term growth and success of your real estate interests.
Our experienced team of lawyers will work with you to understand what you are seeking to achieve in the short term and long term and tailor our advice accordingly.
We provide you with extensive project management support on all aspects of your corporate real estate transactions. We draw upon the support of our wider M&A, tax, employment, and commercial teams, as well as our wider real estate practice, which is one of the largest in London.
We advise developers on the full range of site assembly, corporate structuring and joint ventures for large scale developments. We negotiate joint venture and collaboration agreement and assist with project management and development management agreements, sales and marketing agreements for developers, investors, equity and debt funders and asset management agreements.
Our clients regularly turn to us for corporate structuring and associated regulatory advice on fund structures, as well as corporate due diligence for acquisition and investments and on financings and refinancings. Complemented by our extensive experience of operating and managing franchise agreements, we continue to support our clients after they have made their acquisition.
We have a particular focus on cross-border single asset acquisitions for investor clients. We are equally adept at high end residential property transactions through corporate vehicles, often for international clients, family offices, and high-net-worth individuals.
Our team not only has broad experience across the entire range of real estate asset classes, but we are also specialists in the hotel, restaurant, leisure, and retail sectors.
