Law firm for real estate transactions, commercial lease law, project development and real estate financing.
Real estate projects are rarely a matter of “real estate law alone”. Acquisition and disposal, financing, warranties, lease and tenancy arrangements, construction-related contractual structures and – depending on the vehicle – corporate and tax law interfaces are closely interlinked. In particular in portfolio transactions, share deals, joint ventures or cross-border scenarios, complexity arises less from individual legal issues than from the coherence of the overall structure: risk allocation, securing use, the collateral package and a structure that remains robust even in the event of a dispute.
Kronsteyn advises investors, including real estate funds and family offices, as well as project developers, on the structuring and implementation of German real estate projects. We support transactions from due diligence through contract negotiation and closing to the structuring of acquisition and holding vehicles and coordination with financing partners and notaries. In the case of standing assets, the focus is often on commercially workable lease and tenancy agreements, clear maintenance and capex regimes and practicable exit mechanisms; where conflicts arise, we develop negotiation-ready solutions and, where necessary, represent clients in German court proceedings.
