Background:
When investing in real estate an initial consideration should be how to minimise the tax burden with respect to the prospective sale of the property. The choice of the legal form of the company acquiring the property (the property holding company) can determine a taxoptimised future sale. Considerable differences in taxation also result from the type of the sale: by way of an asset deal or share deal. Therefore, tax structuring of real estate investments aims at, among other things, minimising or avoiding the trade tax burden.

The seminar will deal with the tax planning opportunities and risks regarding acquisition, holding and financing activities related to real estate and post-acquisition structuring, as well as disposition of foreign movable and immovable property investments. Participants will explore the fundamental tax consequences of business decisions on cross-border investments through a comprehensive case study. In the final session of the seminar, some domestic legislations will be looked at in specific details and an expert panel Q&A will be conducted to discuss the participants’ questions and the most pressing issues.

The seminar is ideal for in-house tax directors and/or managers and CFOs and/or financial staff of real estate owners, developers, REITs, investment advisers, asset management companies, pension funds, mortgage brokers and bankers, advisers and government officials working with enterprises or individuals involved in the real estate sector or managing immovable property investments.
