Practice Areas
Kim’s particular expertise is in property development transactions, whether acquisitions or disposals. Clients include house builders and healthcare providers such as CALA Homes, Dandara Group, City Developments, Antler Homes and Spire Healthcare.
Kim has advised on the acquisition and disposal (including disposal strategy and advice given throughout the development stages) of residential and mixed-use developments, with development values exceeding £400m in some cases. Acquisitions are often on a conditional on planning basis, and may be on a deferred payment/staged basis, often with overage provisions. She also deals with strategic land transactions (including promotion agreements and options), and the disposal of affordable housing.
