Freehold & Leasehold Acquisitions

We act on transactions involving all types of commercial property, including industrial units and development sites, retail premises, offices and commercial land. Our experience encompasses acquisitions and disposals by private treaty, auction purchases where timescales are critical, and intra-group transfers and property reorganisations. Whatever the nature of the asset or transaction, our focus is on protecting our clients’ commercial interests, identifying legal risk at an early stage and ensuring transactions proceed as efficiently as possible.

Commercial property transactions are frequently linked to wider financing arrangements. We work closely with borrowers, lenders and professional advisers to ensure that funding requirements are addressed alongside the property transaction, whether acting on acquisitions, disposals or refinancings. Our experience includes acting for both borrowers and lenders, including a number of institutional lenders, giving us a thorough understanding of the requirements and priorities of all parties involved.

Many commercial property matters also require specialist advice in related areas. Our team works closely with colleagues advising on Commercial Landlord & Tenant, Agricultural Land, Charity Land, Investment Property and the Hospitality sector, ensuring clients receive coordinated advice across every aspect of their property interests. Whether acting on a standalone transaction or as part of a wider corporate, investment or financing strategy, we provide commercially pragmatic advice tailored to each client’s objectives.
