GOODWYN HERRERA SOLICITORS

Corporate Structuring

Property is often owned, developed, and managed through corporate structures. The way these are set up has a direct impact on tax efficiency, liability, succession planning, and how investors work together. Whether you are acquiring a single property, managing a portfolio, or planning a large development, the right structure can protect your investment and make future transactions smoother.

At GWH Solicitors, we help clients structure property ownership in a way that is commercially effective and legally sound.

When Property Corporate Structuring Matters

  • Property investment companies – holding property through a company for tax and liability purposes.

  • Joint ventures – creating structures for multiple investors or developers to work together.

  • Group structures – separating assets and liabilities across different entities.

  • Succession planning – ensuring property passes efficiently to the next generation.

  • Tax efficiency – maximising reliefs and minimising exposure to SDLT, VAT, or CGT.

How We Can Help

  • Advising on ownership models – companies, LLPs, partnerships, or trusts.

  • Drafting and reviewing documents – articles, shareholder agreements, and joint venture contracts.

  • Protecting investors – limiting liability and safeguarding contributions.

  • Planning exits – structuring sales, transfers, or demergers for property assets.

  • Regulatory compliance – ensuring structures meet Companies House and HMRC requirements.

    After worrying to the point of becoming unwell with stress and many sleepless nights, a friend of mine put me in touch with a lawyer called Saimah. Saimah immediately put my mind at rest. She patiently listened to me, then calmly talked me through all my options and told me about the services and support she could offer me, in regards to the problems I was having with my landlord and the property I live in. She was very professional and had a lot of knowledge on the problems I was having and she also had a genuine kindness about her.

    “I just want to take the time to thank Saimah at Goodwyn Herrera Solicitors for all her support during my struggle with Barts’ Health NHS Trust. The moment I discussed the problem with her over the phone, Saimah has never left it or leave me hopeless. I don’t think no other firm would be so helpful, supportive and patient, during this pandemic. Besides, when thinking of the stressful situation I was going through when I was maliciously dismissed from work in March 2020.
