Commercial property services.

For 45 years' we've provided dedicated administration and support services that ensures we understand our clients’ objectives and can tailor our services to meet them.

Working with in the framework of pension legislation, you can finance your commercial property purchase either solely through your pension scheme, by borrowing funds, or with the help of other parties - connected or unconnected - to pool funds and purchase commercial property collectively or participate in property syndicates, if required.

If clients are considering purchasing a UK commercial property through their self invested pension, clients will need to complete our Commercial Property Questionnaire so that we can assess whether, in principle, the property can be held within the Dentons SIPP or Dentons SSAS. After accepting the property we can look at establishing a self invested personal pension (SIPP) or small self administered scheme (SSAS) with us. This process allows clients to avoid incurring any unnecessary expense.

We offer the following market-leading features:

  • joint transactions between your pension scheme and other pension schemes, individuals and companies
  • ability to phase the property purchase
  • flexibility to choose your own qualified professionals - solicitor, value and lender
  • all UK commercial property considered
  • freedom for clients to manage their own commercial property
  • VAT registration, where applicable.
