Stress-free buying and selling of Jersey properties
Commercial property transactions in Jersey require vigilant legal oversight to ensure that risks are managed, value is protected, and the process runs smoothly. Whether acquiring premises for operational use, investing in commercial real estate, or selling property as part of a strategic shift, having the right legal support is essential. At Parslows LLP, we provide clear, commercially focused legal advice to help clients navigate the complexities of buying and selling commercial property in Jersey.
Every commercial property deal is unique. The legal considerations will vary depending on the type of property, the structure of the transaction, and the parties involved. From offices and retail units to industrial premises and mixed-use developments, our team has experience across a broad range of property types and commercial objectives. We tailor our advice to suit the specific needs of each transaction, ensuring that legal documentation is robust, risks are identified early, and timelines are met.
For buyers, acquiring commercial property involves more than securing the right location. It requires a thorough understanding of title, planning permissions, leasehold arrangements, and any restrictions that may affect future use or development. We carry out detailed legal due diligence to uncover any issues that could impact the transaction or the long-term viability of the investment. This includes reviewing ownership records, identifying encumbrances, assessing permitted use, and advising on any regulatory or zoning matters relevant to the property.

For sellers, preparation is critical to achieving a clean and efficient exit. We help clients review title documentation, resolve any outstanding legal issues, and prepare for disclosure obligations. Our team drafts and negotiates sale agreements that clearly define the terms of the transaction, protect the seller’s position, and minimise the risk of post-completion disputes. We also advise on transitional arrangements, such as ongoing tenancies, service contracts, and handover obligations, ensuring that the sale is commercially sound and legally secure.
Throughout the transaction process, we work collaboratively with surveyors, agents, lenders, and tax advisers to ensure that all aspects of the deal are aligned. Our goal is to provide legal support that complements your commercial strategy and helps you make informed decisions at every stage.
We understand that commercial property decisions are often time-sensitive and driven by business needs. That’s why our advice is practical, responsive, and grounded in the realities of the Jersey market.
