Commercial New Build Solicitors

Our new build solicitors have proven experience in advising house builders and developers on their projects, from site acquisition and refinance through to that final plot sale.

We pride ourselves on our dedication to each project. Our new build solicitors can tailor their work to the individual needs of developers and/or their agent, and offer an initial set up meeting. We also offer site visits in person on request and provide our clients with a dedicated team member to oversee the project from start to finish.

Our new build development expertise

Our new build lawyers work mostly across Bristol and South Gloucestershire, however, our established connections with house builders have taken us across the South West region.

In addition to advising on any aspect of new builds, our new build solicitors work closely with our Commercial Law and Commercial Property teams where necessary to ensure every aspect of your matter is taken care of.

Our lawyers also deal with site acquisitions and producing agreements for the plot sale or lease.

Plot sales and lettings

Our new build solicitors work closely with our commercial property team to identify where they could potentially assist in the development’s future.

How did you hear about us?

"Sarah and her team kept me informed punctually and professionally throughout my maiden house purchase. They were always happy to answer any query, no matter how slight. Highly recommended and would be happy to use them again."
EdwardNew Build Conveyancing Client
"I used Barcan+Kirby to purchase my house and I was impressed with their service. As a normal person I don't really do much legal stuff and so I was worried it was going to be a major hassle and really expensive. However, they were very good at doing all the paperwork, explained everything to me really well and it did not cost as much as I thought it would! Thanks a lot guys!"

DavidNew Build Conveyancing Client
"Thank you for all the hard work you have put into our house move; completing the sale in record time helped us greatly and we are really, really grateful! This has been a difficult move for us and the way you brought this purchase to a speedy conclusion was the tonic we all needed... thank you!"
