Introduction

A developer client can be a company, large or small, or an individual for example with a large back garden who wishes to build on it to realise a profit.

Whilst the essential conveyancing law applies as usual there are many aspects which have a special perspective for the conveyancer.

It is timely to consider an overview of some of the important elements and potential pitfalls to avoid.
