Real estate

Ashurst's highly regarded real estate business operates across borders from our offices in Abu DhabiBrussels, Frankfurt, London, Madrid, Milan, Munich, Paris and Stockholm. We have designed our business to help our clients benefit from the real estate opportunities in Europe today, not only through conventional means of ownership but increasingly using sophisticated structured finance techniques as well as models involving privatisation, outsourcing and public private partnerships.

We have extensive experience of all forms of real estate activity ranging from the acquisition, planning, construction and development, letting and sale of mixed use sites, office buildings, business parks, retail units, shopping centres, hotels and leisure and industrial sites to major urban regeneration projects, property financing transactions, public private partnerships and private finance initiatives, joint ventures, outsourcing, real estate investment funds and other innovative co-ownership or real estate tax and real estate finance driven schemes.

We help our clients execute complex and often pioneering transactions that demand deep market knowledge, talent and commitment and we have been involved in some of the largest real estate transactions ever undertaken in Europe.

We are proud to be recognised at the cutting edge of real estate technology and practice.
