Pourquoi la structure de l'enveloppe de l'entreprise ?
At RFB, we find it increasingly common for our real estate clients to carry out a transaction where the asset is propriété but the transaction is a corporate one.
We understand the unique requirements and complexities required, and in particular for mergers and acquisitions, the significant tax advantages in choosing to acquire or dispose of the interests in a corporate vehicle rather than acquiring the property itself.
De même, lorsque deux ou plusieurs parties se réunissent dans un but commun, tel que le résidentiel ou commercial development of a site, a corporate joint venture va often be formed. Each party will be bringing something different knowledge and skills sets, be it asset management skills, building and construction skills, knowledge and responsibility of réglementaire licences linked to the property, and/or pricing and accounting skills. We will seek to ensure that issues such as control, return and transfers fit your strategic interests and enable the JV and its property-related purpose to best function and be delivered.
Keeping business interests separate, for example, SPVs can create more flexibility should you decide to want to sell off different assets as it affords you the opportunity to consider options to sell an asset or the SPV should you wish to realise an investment.
