real estate

Belgian and international statutes concerning real estate are an exceptionally specialized matter. What’s more, real estate ownership and management don’t just affect those in the real estate sector. They’re activities that have an impact on a wide range of participants, including property developers, real estate investors, financial institutions, public bodies, general contractors, architects, engineering firms and end-users. 

With our experience and expertise in all aspects of property law, and in close collaboration with the M&A team, we provide a comprehensive service, assisting you in any part of the process of the sale and acquisition of real estate in Belgium and abroad. We help you to get the deal done, maximize value, attain your financial and commercial goals and mitigate risks.

We assist property owners and lessees with negotiating and drafting lease agreements concerning both commercial and industrial property.

Of particular note is our expertise with leasing new store locations for numerous retailers and hospitality concepts, whereby we focus on the importance of obtaining the necessary permits and implementing an effective legal mechanism for the timely opening of new locations.

As a developer or co-developer you are exposed to a great deal of risk in the phase just before closing a contract. As your legal partner, we strive to stipulate the right conditions, leaving you free to focus on your business.

All real estate related constructions require a solid contractual foundation. We'll take care of the drafting of your building contracts with a proactive and practical approach and we will provide you with support during negotiations so you can sleep soundly.
