Advising on a high-value property acquisition in South Kensington
Jeffrey Green Russell acted for a property investment company in connection with the simultaneous purchase of the freehold and leasehold interest in a property in South Kensington which had to be completed in 3 weeks.

Property portfolio acquisition for redevelopment in West London
Jeffrey Green Russell acted for an offshore property development company in its purchase of a number of properties in Chelsea, Notting Hill and South Kensington which required an innovative approach as the transaction was split into two phases. Jeffrey Green Russell arranged for the client to have access to the properties prior to completion in order to draw up their redevelopment plans in readiness to commence work on completion. Jeffrey Green Russell worked closely with the lender's solicitors to deal with all the appropriate enquiries regarding the properties and the client to advise the lender and ensure that all parties were adequately protected.
Advising an offshore investment company on sub-sale transaction
Jeffrey Green Russell acted for an offshore trust in connection with the purchase of an investment property by way of a sub-sale transaction in a brand new development in West London. Only days before completion the lender revised the advance on the basis of its valuation and we discovered that the sub-seller was selling the property at a much higher price than the actual value. The vendor rescinded the contract with the intermediate seller meaning that they could no longer sell the property to our client and they retained the deposit paid. Jeffrey Green Russell negotiated directly with the vendor and saved the day for the client by arranging for the property to be sold to them directly from the vendor at a reduced price.
