Make Legal Due Diligence When Acquiring Industrial Real Estate

Abstract

The acquisition of industrial real estate (workshops, warehouses, hangars and office buildings) is an important stage in establishing a foreign investor's fully-fledged business activity in Ukraine. While Ukrainian companies have already privatized the majority of suitable industrial real estate, it seems that the typical way for a foreign investor wishing to acquire real estate is to buy such assets as private property from a private Ukrainian company. As a rule such Ukrainian companies-owners of suitable industrial real estate are organized as Joint StoStock Companies or Limited Liability Companies.
