Shariah compliance raises a whole new set of issues on a deal and knowing how to navigate these is of real importance if you are hoping to attract investors with Islamic laws as their guiding business principles. In this installment of our new series on real estate and financing hot topics in 2009, our presenters Jonathan Lawrence, Steven J. Adelkoff and Remsen M. Kinne IV of K&L Gates LLP deal with all of the questions you will need to answer: How do you structure a real estate deal if you are looking to attract Shariah compliant investors? What features do they like and which do they avoid? What types of real estate are suitable? What are the permissible forms of ownership? How must you allocate profits and losses? How do you structure the leasing of a building? Which tenants are off limits? Why do you need a Shariah scholar on a deal? What do they bring and how do you find one?
