Course description

Property development work is probably the most varied, interesting and challenging work you can deal with as a property lawyer. But it is not just title checking and process - you need to develop a commercial awareness of a wide range of issues.


Presented by popular speaker Hannah Mackinlay, this course assumes you have a good knowledge of conveyancing and will build on this to help you get started dealing with development work. There will be some group and interactive exercises so you can appreciate just how important the physical aspects of a site are and realise that it isn’t a box-ticking paperwork exercise.
