Strategic Land Promotion

Service overview

What we do

Strategic land promotion requires legal, planning and commercial decisions to work together over the long term. We advise landowners on preparing land for development, selecting the right promotion or development partner and securing arrangements designed to maximise value.
Our property and planning specialists work as one team on promotion agreements, options, conditional contracts, collaboration arrangements, planning strategy, infrastructure and eventual disposal. We also consider tax, ownership and succession issues that may affect the land or the transaction.
