Real Estate

At CMS Carey & Allende we take on projects from the initial strategic stages of planning, providing consulting services in the complete legal analysis of real estate, as well as for its acquisition, construction and approval of all related permits.

We are familiar with the way in which the authorities operate, given our experience of over twenty years of working with them, as well as the fact that some of our lawyers have worked in the public sector in the past.

Our experience includes the filing of administrative and judicial actions, ensuring the proper application of the law, and the granting of permits by the authorities involved.

Whether you are in the mining, energy, retail, housing, telecom, infrastructure, hospitality, port services, sanitary services or manufacturing sectors, we have the specialists to help.

If you are launching or operating a real estate fund or setting up a real estate related joint venture, our funds and corporate experts can provide support specific to your country. This approach allows us to guide your tax, planning, debt financing, construction and management matters, in addition to your traditional real estate portfolio and property management work.
