Redevelopment projects cover arranging the redevelopment or major refurbishment of land and buildings, including acquiring land, negotiating planning consent, and coordinating funding and construction. A solicitor in this area drafts and negotiates options and land assembly agreements, negotiates s106 planning obligations or community infrastructure levy contributions, and oversees due diligence on title, rights of light, easements and leases. They also author the construction contracts, handle property transactions at pace, and liaise with planning authorities, developers, funders and contractors to drive a project from consent to practical completion.
What a solicitor handles in these matters
The complexity lies in managing title risk, securing planning permission and associated affordable housing or infrastructure obligations, negotiating development agreements and funding arrangements, and coordinating multiple contracts and consents through to practical completion. The solicitor handles due diligence, options, option and land assembly agreements, and negotiations with public bodies, lenders and contractors, with attention to title conditions, restrictive covenants, and long lead times.
