Cases & Lacambra has advised Ameris Capital -a Chilean fund manager with presence in Chile, Mexico, United States, Spain and Colombia- in its first investment in Spain, consisting of a joint venture with the Spanish listed company Neinor Homes to invest -through different SPVs- and with an initial investment target of €50 million, in the construction and sale of housing in Spain (i.e. “build-to-sell” projects).
The advice provided by the firm has been developed during all phases of the transaction and included the legal structuring of the operation, the negotiation and contractual execution of the joint venture with Neinor Homes, the coordination of the different due diligence exercises -from the point of view of commercial, real estate, urban and tax law- in relation to the first investment to be carried out by the JV, as well as its execution and funding.
The Cases & Lacambra team was led by Jose Manuel Llanos-Alperi, corporate M&A partner, Marta González-Llera, real estate and urban planning partner, Jorge del Castillo, tax partner and Joaquín Fabré, financial services partner.
