Transactions

Our expertise

We advise clients during the entire process of real estate transactions starting with the legal and fiscal structuring of the transaction process and a first letter of intent. With the help of an experienced transaction team, we are subsequently able to map, at short notice and with great efficiency, test-intensive and time critical legal and fiscal due diligence processes. It goes without saying that we draw up and negotiate the corresponding (purchase) contracts on behalf of our clients and support them until the transaction has been successfully closed.

We have transaction expertise covering all common types of real estate – commercial, retail, and residential – including specific real estate such as hotels and logistics facilities. In the case of cross-border transactions we can rely on the assistance of a well-established network of colleagues and offer our clients a one-stop shop for services.

At our Frankfurt office our notaries are available for certifications.
