Real Estate Investment Agreement (International)

An international Real Estate Investment Agreement sets the playbook for cross-border acquisitions, joint ventures, or club deals: it allocates scope (asset description, due diligence), money (price, adjustments, taxes), timelines (CPs, long-stop), and risk (title, regulatory, FX, sanctions). Market context matters: cross-regional capital flows rebounded in H2-2024 to US$37B (+31% YoY), showing renewed appetite—yet execution is slower where approvals apply. Total transaction costs (stamp duty, notary, agency, fees) can approach ~20% in some jurisdictions, so budgets should include transfer taxes and closing frictions. Expect screening in many destinations: 38 OECD countries had FDI screening in place by end-2023, and at least 41 globally by 2024—often touching real estate, infrastructure, or assets near sensitive sites. Build your agreement to navigate these hurdles with clear approvals, FX mechanics, and post-closing governance. Want a counsel-ready pack with country addenda and a model term sheet?
