Unlocking development potential

Unlocking development potential

A four-part webinar series for commercial property developers

Gain clarity. Avoid costly pitfalls. Maximise your returns.

Navigating a commercial development project from acquisition to completion is no small feat. Whether you’re building from scratch, converting use, or acquiring for investment, you need more than just ambition; you need a clear legal strategy at every stage.

That’s where our expert-led webinar series comes in.

Join our senior commercial property solicitors as they walk you through the legal foundations that support a successful, risk-aware and profitable development project.

Watch on demand

Whether you’re mid-project or preparing for your next one, this series is your on-demand guide to getting it right, legally and commercially.

Each webinar is packed with practical tips, real-world scenarios, and jargon-free legal insights to help you make confident, informed decisions.

Identifying the right site below.
Our first webinar explores key factors when selecting a site, including access, rights of way, covenants, and planning conditions, plus common issues that can make land unsuitable for development.
Acquisition.
One of the key phases in any development project. In the second webinar of the series, we cover the different methods of buying and selling land, as well as the financial aspects.
Marketing and construction.
Our third webinar discussed contractor selection, on-site management, section agreements, oversail licences, and other issues that arise during the build. We also looked at pre-sale strategies to help reduce financial risk.
Completion and handover.
The final webinar shares essential tips to avoid costly end-of-project mistakes, covering final checks, handover pitfalls, and managing post-completion liabilities.
