Real Estate Development and Planning

Our lawyers in Botswana are highly experienced in advising on all aspects of development and planning matters. 

For example, with most townships in Botswana established by government or state-owned entities, we acted for a client in creating the first privately-established township. 

This involved legal assistance with all elements of work including change of land use and zoning, subdivision of plots, registration of general plans, registration of certificates of registered title, and transfers of property to various purchasers.

Experience has included advising:

  • On establishing Phakalane township in Gaborone, Botswana
  • On negotiating between property developer and government for the provision of water, electricity and sewage infrastructure in a township
