Real estate is a key pillar of economic growth and progress throughout Europe. It represents not only an important and complex area of law, but also a highly influential industry.
ADVANT Altana offers significant expertise in all aspects of real estate to help our clients achieve their goals and meet their challenges.
Our team offers a 360-degree perspective and approach to advising on all major asset classes, including commercial, industrial, residential and alternative real estate (housing for the elderly, student accommodation, short-term rental, PRS, etc.), logistics, healthcare, hotels, offices, retail, and mass distribution.
We advise on a wide range of issues, including the acquisition or sale of individual assets or portfolios, leases (whether for assets or activities), management agreements, urban planning, and project development.
We have proven skills and expertise in the specialized field of construction law, project management, and monitoring, and advise our clients in all related activities. We also regularly advise our clients on planning issues and provide experts to meet their needs.
We frequently deal with fund formation issues, as well as the creation of real estate funds, REITs, SPVs, and other regulated vehicles. In addition, because of our close links with ADVANT Altana's other practice areas and competencies, we are able to advise on a range of related issues such as acquisition finance, environment, ESG, and taxation.
Our multidisciplinary team brings together lawyers and business and corporate, real estate, tax, and environmental professionals with extensive industry experience on each issue. We work with clients on a variety of assets and properties, and understand the complex business and legal issues that can affect a specific asset class. We help manage these challenges with the aim of reducing risk, implementing best practice and achieving a satisfactory outcome for the client.
When disputes arise - involving landlords, tenants, investors or contractors - our team of leading specialists works with clients to achieve the right outcome, whether in court or through alternative dispute resolution methods.
Our experience has enabled us to work on projects of almost every scale (in both the private and public sectors) including commercial airports, retail complexes, sports and event venues, hotels and hospitals, industrial facilities and infrastructure, residential projects and commercial premises.
