Our real estate practice covers the full spectrum of property-related legal services required by developers, landowners, financial institutions and individual clients across Bangladesh.
We regularly conduct title verification and legal due diligence on land and property before acquisition or financing, draft and register sale deeds, lease agreements and mortgage documents, and advise on the legal aspects of land acquisition and property development. Given the complexity of Bangladesh's land record system, our due diligence work is deliberately thorough, tracing chain of title, verifying mutation records, and identifying encumbrances or disputes before a client commits capital to a transaction.
We ensure that every real estate transaction we handle is legally sound, properly documented and fully compliant with applicable registration requirements, working closely with local sub-registry offices and government land authorities where necessary to keep transactions on schedule. For developers and institutional clients undertaking larger projects, we also advise on the structuring of joint development arrangements and the negotiation of terms between landowners and developers.
Recognizing that real estate development in Bangladesh carries significant tax and VAT exposure, we integrate tax and VAT planning into our real estate advisory from the outset, working alongside our Lex Tax Partners to structure development projects, sale arrangements and financing in a manner that is both compliant and commercially efficient.
