Our team is both a legal and Tax real estate.

Our expertise

• The team covers all aspects of real estate investments and project development:

o Real estate investment / financing

§ Structuring of Real Estate Investment funds (OPCIs)

o Asset management

o Construction

• With lawyers, specialized in urban planning law, we address all issues implied by development projects.

• Thanks to our real estate tax experts, we also cover tax and VAT issues.

• Acting principally on behalf of foreign and French investors, the group has developed significant experience in complex real estate transactions (tax structuring, legal structuring, financing, acquisition and asset management).

Often retained by foreign investors as legal and tax advisors, we are regularly involved in transactions based in prime real estate locations, such as the Champs-Elysées, the Marais and the Golden Triangle (avenue Montaigne -Victor Hugo streets: the district where most luxury boutiques and haute couture labels are located in the heart of Paris.)
