Housebuilding & Development

Advising on a wide range of housing developments and projects to create sustainable homes for the future.

We act for private and affordable housing developers, as well as landowners and promoters.  

The breadth of our practice and our in-depth experience supporting the various parties on transactions enables us to anticipate parties’ positions and “red-lines”, thereby smoothing the negotiation process. 

Our expert team covers all aspects of the full development process including land, planning and infrastructure consenting, property litigation, construction, plot sales and commercial advice.

We work with private housebuilders, developers and landowners, and social & affordable housing providers of all shapes and sizes, supporting across the full range of legal needs from acquisition and disposal of housing developments through to complex litigation and tenancy management issues.

"Ashfords are very client focused, and provide sensible and practical advice to ensure the client receives the most satisfactory and cost effective outcome."
