Over the past 20 years, Houthoff’s extensive Construction & Development Team has developed unrivalled knowledge and experience, which means that our clients are always guaranteed the best possible support.
Procurement
Tendering is a careful process that begins with the preparation of the procurement and continues through to the signing of the contract. At every stage – whether it involves drafting documents, conducting procedures, handling complaints, or managing complex disputes – expert guidance is essential.
Real Estate
The real estate market is constantly evolving, driven by urban growth, sustainability goals, complex financing, and shifting regulations.
