Ground leasing covers long-term leases of land for development or operating purposes, where the tenant gains a defined use of the land for a period often extending 999 years in exchange for ground rent.

They also advise on title freehold interests, rights to assets on the land, and the interaction with lenders and developers during project funding and completion.
