Project Development

The planning and securing of every real estate project requires a multifaceted approach. We offer holistic advisory services, accompanying you throughout the project’s entire life cycle:

What should be considered when acquiring property or a single-property company? How can an optimal building permit for a planned project be obtained? How are neighbourhood agreements to be drafted to avoid future disputes and other negative effects on the project’s implementation? Which rental or lease contracts consider current case law, the optimal rate of return and possible objections and are not disputed when the property is to be sold? How should legal conditions be structured to ensure a (partial) sale in line with market standards? Which requirements are to be met in financing?

HFK Rechtsanwälte offer advice on all questions and phases of project development. We advise on project ideas, support you in discussions with cities and municipalities, and will gladly accompany you at architectural competitions. We can also support you in acquiring and structuring property, as well as in the closing of yield-oriented rental agreements (which will also not require any supplements upon exit). We also provide the necessary support regarding financing and the ultimate sale. This allows you to ensure the optimal development of your project under all circumstances.
