In real estate development projects, the trustee plays a central role under the Austrian Property Developer Act (BTVG). GIBEL ZIRM Attorneys at Law act as contract drafters and trustees to the highest legal standards, combining comprehensive expertise with a clear focus on practical solutions. Our aim is to ensure a legally secure and smooth transaction from the moment the developer agreement is drafted, thereby protecting the interests of both the developer and the purchaser in the best possible way.
Services and Offer for Real Estate Development
A One-Stop Shop for Property Development Contracts
We combine our many years of experience in providing legal support for real estate development projects with high standards of quality, efficiency, and innovation. We rethink processes and always keep the bigger picture in mind, so that your project is sound not only from a legal perspective, but also from an economic one.
As part of our work, we take on the following tasks in particular:
- Reviewing the Applicability of the BTVG: At an early stage of the project, we carefully assess whether the BTVG applies to the project in question. An incorrect assessment can have serious legal and economic consequences for all parties involved, which is why an early legal review is essential.
- Drafting Purchase and Property Development Contracts: We prepare contracts that fully comply with the mandatory requirements of the BTVG and create legal certainty for both developers and purchasers. We place particular emphasis on transparency and clarity, including for clients without a legal background. We also provide purchasers with comprehensive legal information about their rights and obligations.
- Monitoring Construction Progress: To ensure that the purchase price is paid in accordance with the statutory instalment schedule, we monitor the progress of construction and consult independent civil engineers or construction experts for an objective assessment. Through our established network, we have access to particularly qualified and experienced experts. Supporting the project throughout its entire duration: As contract drafters and trustees, we see ourselves not only as legal advisors, but also as an integral part of your project team. We remain available to you as a reliable point of contact throughout the project – competent, solution-oriented, and easily accessible.
