Having handled nearly every type of land use, real property conveyancing, leasing, and development issue, Hallmark is amongst the leaders in land sector transactions.

Experience

Variously conducted due diligence on the properties, which included reviewing the title deeds, survey reports, zoning regulations, and any other relevant documents. We ensured that all necessary permits and approvals are in place for the property.

Once the due diligence process is completed and in order, we have drafted the necessary legal documents for the transactions, including the purchase agreements, mortgage documents, and transfer of title deeds.

We have coordinated with the seller’s/buyer’s lawyers to ensure a smooth and timely closing of the deals. A number of times, this involved resolving any issues that arise during the transaction, such as negotiating repairs or adjustments to the purchase price.

On closing, we have overseen the transfer of funds, exchange of legal documents, and registration of the property in the buyer’s/invetor’s name. We have also ensured that all necessary taxes and fees are paid and that the transaction is legally healthy.

We have protected our clients’ interests by ensuring successful and legally compliant transactions.

Our team has successfully overseen a comprehensive real estate development project, which involved several critical phases. Initially, we managed the acquisition of land, ensuring that all necessary negotiations and legal requirements were met to secure the property. Following this, we facilitated the change of land use and zoning, working closely with local authorities to ensure compliance with regulations and to optimize the land for our intended development.

Subsequently, we oversaw the construction phase, to ensure compliance with laws and regulations affecting the development. Once the construction was completed, we handled the application, registration, and issuance of sub-titles for each individual unit. This complex process required meticulous attention to detail to ensure that all units were properly documented and legally recognized.

Finally, we successfully managed the conveyancing process for the purchased units.
