The economic downturn had a severe effect on the real estate development sector in middle-east, with many projects now either canceled altogether. After a difficult three years, the real estate industry is showing good come back but with a very different focus of attention. Off-plan investment activity is currently non-existent. Investors’ concentration has instead turned to newly completed projects, particularly those of a high quality in the right location with high tenant demand.

We advise on general commercial property transactions, property dispute resolution, strata and mixed use schemes, hospitality development and asset management, real estate development, property funds, legislative drafting, and drafting and negotiating agreements to lease, leases, tenancy contracts and licenses to occupy for residential, commercial, industrial and retail property. The breadth and depth of our experience enables us to assist with all aspects of real estate legal practice across the Middle East.

The Indian construction and real estate industry is playing an important role in the nations progress towards achieving the status of developed nation from a developing nation.

However, there is a consensus that infrastructure inadequacies would constitute a significant constraint in realizing our growth potential.

An ambitious program of infrastructure investment has therefore been evolved for strengthening and consolidating recent infrastructure and real estate related initiatives. To supplement the estimates of Gross Capital Formation in infrastructure, the Planning Commission has made projections of public-private investments in each sector, basing these on a detailed review of sectoral trends and projected expenditures.
