At McGuire, Wood & Bissette, PA our legal team provides a full range of services to residential, commercial, mixed use condominium, and urban village development clients. Our attorneys have a wealth of knowledge and experience in North Carolina condominium law, and in applicable municipal and county development codes and ordinances. We understand that developers face unique challenges in Asheville, Buncombe County and Western North Carolina due to the diverse nature of our community. These challenges begin with project design, technical review and the planning process, where quality representation before the City or County, and adequate consideration of local competing interests, is crucial.

We add value to our development clients by application of our vast experience, which includes just about every possible twist of condominium, and planned unit (subdivision and town home) development law, including the multi-faceted air rights issue, unconventional land defined condominium units, phased developments, parking condominium units, conversion condominiums, green buildings (including issues related to green roofs, shared solar paneling provisions and common community services and resources), consolidation of condominium in a master plan of development of a subdivision, and unique association and subassociation relationships.
