Buying or selling business premises can be a complex process. Whether you are looking to expand your operations, dispose of an asset, or secure a new location for the company, our friendly solicitors can provide the best legal advice throughout the transaction.

At Owen White Catlin, our solicitors have the comprehensive experience needed to ensure that your company’s property transactions are completed smoothly and with minimal stress, whether it be an office space, retail or industrial unit.

Acquisitions and disposals

Property acquisitions and disposals are complex processes with significant commercial impact. Along with numerous administrative details to manage, there are also critical legal and financial considerations that require expert handling to ensure a smooth and successful transaction. We can advise on every aspect of this process, carrying out the necessary procedures professionally and efficiently.

Leases & tenancy agreements

Whether you are landlord or a tenant, negotiating and drafting a watertight lease agreement is critical. A well-prepared lease can prevent disputes and protect your interests, both during and at the end of the lease term, so it’s important to enlist the best legal assistance when doing so.

Our solicitors have extensive experience in preparing, reviewing, and negotiating all types of leases, ensuring that they are robust and legally compliant. If you need assistance with matters such as grants of leases, renewals, rent reviews, breaches of covenant or disputes and claims for dilapidation, we can promise an efficient solution that will protect your business’s interests securely.

Sale and purchase of land for redevelopment

If you are acquiring or selling land for redevelopment, you will need to be aware of a variety of legal considerations. Our solicitors will help you navigate these challenges, ensuring that your project progresses as smoothly as possible.

Our solicitors will assess your project thoroughly to ensure your solutions best suit your desired outcome. Our services related to the sale and purchase of land for redevelopment include site acquisitions and disposals, joint ventures, planning and development agreements, and agreements including land promotions, overages, and option agreements.

Financing

When it comes to financing transactions, it’s essential that all legal aspects are carefully managed. We can guide you through securing finance options (such as commercial mortgages, bridging loans and refinancing), support through negotiations, draft and review loan agreements and conduct due diligence to ensure compliance and reduce risk. With our reassuring expertise, you can make informed decisions to work towards your business goals.
