Real Estate and Construction

The Real Estate and Construction sector inherently carries significant legal risks due to its complexity and specific characteristics. Projects ranging from residential area development, industrial parks, commercial centers, and transportation infrastructure projects to the purchase, sale, and transfer of land use rights are all governed by a diverse and stringent legal system covering land, construction, investment, real estate business, environment, and taxation. 

To ensure legality, safety, and business efficiency, businesses, investors, and individuals need to strictly comply with regulations on planning, permits, contracts, and transactions. Proper legal compliance not only minimizes risks but also optimizes economic benefits and protects rights in investment and business activities.
