Living every moment with you

Living Sector Lawyers

There are a thousand moments that lead to seeing returns on your Living sector business. From navigating residential regulations and the Building Safety Act, through to managing development constraints and meeting affordable housing targets. 

Rely on us to bring you specialist insights earned from repeatedly working across the entire Living sector: on single and multi-family build to rent, build to sell, student accommodation, co-living, affordable housing and later living. 

Our team has worked on thousands of deals and projects in the sector, so you can be sure that we will help you handle the big and the small moments. For example:

  • Considering your commercial goals from the get-go 
  • Getting your ideal structure right, first time
  • Using tech for the small things, and brains for the big things 
  • Providing a clear steer on how legislative change affects the bottom-line 
  • Smiling together through any moment
  • Never forgetting post-completion formalities

From fundability and feasibility to exit strategy, we work tirelessly with developers, lenders, funders and operators to get the deal done or project delivered.

We live, breathe and love Living.
