Developers

Our Residential Development Team here at Cozens-Hardy LLP has both expertise and experience in bucketfuls – just what you need if you are acquiring, developing and selling off plots on residential sites, whether in the city or the country.

We are able to advise you on all aspects relating to the purchase of the site, to include investigating the title, checking search results and checking that the site will have the benefit of all necessary easements.

Once acquired, we prepare the paperwork for the sale (whether freehold or leasehold units) and put together a comprehensive package of papers for the solicitors acting for your buyer. This would include replies to enquiries, copies of planning consents, building regulation paperwork and copies of any guarantees - all streamlined so as to pre-empt any enquiries which may be raised by your buyer’s solicitors and, crucially, to ensure that each sale happens within your proposed time frame.

We will liaise with your estate agents, providing both you and the agents with regular progress reports and, further, our team will proactively chase each sale, again to ensure that exchange takes place by your deadline. We can act for your lender and deal with all their security requirements.

We take great pride in our hands-on approach to working with developers. The solicitor leading your team will naturally meet you on site to take your instructions regarding the development and how best to handle the sales. We will also attend the launch of the site so we can be on hand to deal with any enquiries from the agents or prospective buyers.
