Cases – Danders & More

The client, a Luxembourg company, purchased eight large commercial properties in 2018, and these have now been sold again to four different purchasers. We assisted in all four sales, including the handling of the purchaser’s due diligence, which offered various challenges, in particular as the main part of the properties were taken over with the current lessee.

Danders & More has advised on the concluding of the English construction contract in connection with the establishment of the new field at PARKEN national stadium.

The field is undergoing complete renovation and a brand-new hybrid field is established. A really exciting assignment, as contracts involving hybrid fields are not that common. Consequently, there were a lot of interesting challenges in relation to the more technical issues involved in the construction. The establishment of the field is already in process, and we look so much forward to seeing some great football being played there.

Danders & More assisted in the sale of the software company Decision Focus ApS to the private equity fund, Via Equity, as the founder, managing director and ultimate owner, Jon Tollerup, together with three other key persons, have reinvested in the new ownership behind Decision Focus ApS.

Danders & More has assisted our clients in the transfer of the commercial lease for the legendary pub, HONG KONG, in Nyhavn in central Copenhagen.

A very interesting but also somewhat challenging assignment, as parts of the property are listed for preservation, and as HONG KONG generally has historic and sentimental value to many Copenhageners. We look forward to seeing the development of the premises.

Danders & More has been a part of a very interesting development project for an old property on Nordre Fasanvej, at Frederiksberg.

The property was sold with a view to performing a major renovation and restructuring, as a large part of the building is to be converted from commercial use to habitation. We have assisted in connection with the extensive building application process, and adoption of various changes in the existing owners’ association. In addition to being an interesting project, it was also a bit complicated, as the apartments first were transferred from the original owner to a broker, and then transferred to our client, who finally sold the apartments to the end purchaser – a transaction in four stages.
