Residential Property & Leasehold Enfranchisement

We believe that only a personal approach will do when dealing with the often complex transactions involved in residential property. Our team works closely with our clients, both domestic and international, when buying or selling residential property in England and Wales. Our highly skilled solicitors and legal executives will guide you through your specific transaction quickly and with the minimum of stress.

What’s more, we’ll draw on the expertise of our colleagues to advise on personal tax, trusts and other family issues, where required, to offer a fully integrated service.

We can help you with:

  • new build, design and construction projects
  • the grant and/or acquisition of long leases and short leases
  • landlord and tenant legislation
  • disputes arising in connection with residential property

Our leasehold reform team is one of the leading teams in this complex area of law. We have acted in some of the most high profile cases in this area including several landmark cases heard before the House of Lords. We are available to advise:

  • commercial property clients wanted to structure their portfolios to take advantage of the leasehold reform legislation
  • tenants seeking lease extensions
  • tenants acting collectively to purchase the freehold of their building or exercise the right to manage
  • tenants seeking to acquire the freehold of their house

With our extensive network of contacts and colleagues, we can ensure that any structural, valuation, trust or taxation issues are dealt with at the outset.
