Our Project Development & Construction team combines real estate experts from across our three disciplines – lawyers, tax advisers and civil law notaries. This allows us to service all our clients’ legal and tax needs.
Because the knowledge and expertise of our team members covers the entire life cycle of real estate, our clients can rely on swift responses and spot-on advice. This specialised multidisciplinary approach clearly distinguishes us from others and enables us to deal with complex large-scale development projects.
Sustainability is becoming an increasingly important factor in the decisions of investors, companies, consumers, shareholders and policy and law makers. The broadly supported awareness of Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) objectives is reflected in many international voluntary standards as well as in an increasing number of European regulations.
As 2024 nears its end, it is time for our annual tax update. This update focuses on the tax trends and developments we foresee for 2025 and includes tips and takeaways.
On Monday 18 November 2024, the Dutch legislator published its proposal on the implementation of the Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive (CSDDD) in the Netherlands.
In the Book 3 "Goods" of the Belgian Civil Code the main goal of the legislator was to better structure, modernise and integrate the law on goods into a single code.

Furthermore, our team is particularly active in sizable residential and area developments (preferably mixed use), as well as commercial and industrial real estate development. Our client base is varied; we assist project developers, investors, contractors, end users and public bodies. Our experience in both non-contentious and contentious construction issues - ranging from procurement, planning and tax through engineering, construction, financing, maintenance and operating - is appreciated by our clients. Whatever your request, you can count on us.
With an enormous track record in (large scale) inner-city development, including high-rise and mixed-use projects, we know the ins and outs of these projects. These projects often require specific regulation, municipality guidelines and agreements - e.g. concerning lease law and ground lease. Handling these complexities and challenges is day to day business for us and the many parties we work with.
We can help you develop a sustainable project, that will stand out for years to come. At the cutting edge of latest developments, Loyens & Loeff is your next generation law & tax firm. Be it by improving the sustainability of existing assets, or creating future proof new buildings with optimal sustainability, we have the expertise and the know-how on all necessary (governmental) requirements that apply.
You can count on us, whatever the request:
