Acquisitions & Disposals
Investment-grade real estate acquisitions and disposals — commercial, residential, industrial, and mixed-use.
Real estate transactions, executed with certainty.
We advise institutional investors, developers, corporates, and high-net-worth individuals on real estate acquisitions and disposals across East Africa — from single asset transactions to portfolio-level deals.
Our team combines transactional discipline with practical land, planning, and tax insight, closing deals that stand up to later scrutiny.

How we approach this practice.
We handle the full spectrum of private transactions — share and asset purchases, divestitures, and corporate carve-outs — with a due diligence process rigorous enough to surface the red-flag risks that move valuation, from land title defects to undisclosed liabilities.
On the public side, we advise on takeovers, schemes of arrangement, and delistings involving companies listed on the Nairobi Securities Exchange, ensuring strict compliance with capital markets regulation.
