    Brief

    This opportunity seeks to continue legal services from Forsters LLP following the completion of the Ministry of Defence's acquisition of 36,347 Service Family Accommodation (SFA) units from Annington Homes for £5.99 billion, which closed in January 2025. Forsters LLP previously provided specialist enfranchisement and property law advice during judicial review proceedings and the High Court trial related to leasehold reform challenges. The selected supplier will now provide ongoing legal counsel for post-completion activities, including the contractual obligation to transfer housing units valued at approximately £55 million back to the MOD. This engagement requires expertise in complex property transactions, contractual obligations, and public sector housing law. The work is essential to ensure full compliance with all post-completion contractual terms and successful completion of the housing unit handover process.
