Real Estate Taxation
How do you structure your investment vehicle and acquisition with ever-changing national and international legislation? How do you uphold an unblemished reputation and simultaneously maintain an efficient tax structure? How do you monitor day-to-day compliance in an increasingly regulated environment and safeguard your investment return? These questions reflect the importance and relevance of our renowned real estate taxation advice.
Structuring and taxation are our strength. They enable us to anticipate tax pitfalls and integrate tax aspects at all stages of a project, keeping in mind that decisions made, even in the early stages of an investment, can have a significant impact on the profitability. We also advise on all taxation aspects relating to public-private partnerships.
