High Value Residential Property Transactions Solicitor 0 – 4 years’ PQE LONDON
Overview
This prestigious private practice law firm is looking to recruit a Solicitor of 0 to 4 years’ PQE to undertake matters relating to high value Residential Property Transactions. The role is to advise clients on all aspects of residential property transactions. This includes everything from the purchase and refurbishment of prime central London houses, the buying of premium apartments off plan and the forward purchase of bespoke luxury houses to the extension and restoration of country estates. The value, complexity and timelines of these projects require sophisticated advice, which they tailor to the specific needs of their clients. They don’t typically advise on property transactions in isolation. Building long-term relationships with clients enables the team to offer a co-ordinated approach to their clients’ property investments and personal affairs. Therefore, they often advise on issues such as owning a multi-purpose portfolio, the impact on multi-generational succession planning and the personal tax and immigration considerations for non-UK residents or non-domiciliaries living in the UK. Clients are predominantly business people, whether international investors, entrepreneurs, family businesses or landed estates, all of whom expect the team to be responsive and commercial. The successful candidate will work with other solicitors in the team on a wide range of residential property matters involving prime Central London houses and apartments and country estates. You will undertake the day-to-day management of files from file opening to billing, but always with individual supervision, support and involvement by partners and senior members of the team. Work involves freehold and leasehold conveyancing work for high net worth individuals, family offices and property funds; mortgage advice for buying and re-financing properties, advising banks, borrowers, guarantors and occupiers; leasehold enfranchisement advice including lease extensions, collective enfranchisement and tenant rights of first refusal; and advising on landlord and tenant law (short-term and long term leasehold interests). The right candidate will possess good post-qualification experience in UK domestic work. They need to be technically able, with an easy familiarity with relevant residential property law commensurate with their experience and will be a proactive and resilient problem solver.
