Buying\/Selling Real Estate: Conveyancing<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cConveyancing\u201d is the term applied to the buying and selling any type of real estate. But ever changing laws and procedures now have a substantial affect on this process. <\/p>\n

Our firm has the experience to guide you through the conveyance to ensure you are satisfied and happy with the outcome.

Off the Plan Purchase\/Sale<\/strong><\/p>\n

Melbourne has always been an attractive place to live and now, more than ever, this city has become a desirable cosmopolitan \u201chub\u201d that many of us proudly call \u201chome\u201d. <\/p>\n

High and medium density unit developments offer an attractive and affordable way to have our own little \u201cpiece\u201d of this great city. <\/p>\n

An \u201cOff the Plan\u201d purchase is exactly what the name implies. A unit development may only be a fantastic drawing or concept, but is more attractive to buyers because of the substantial savings in stamp duty \u2013 a definite advantage over established property. However, developers and purchasers need to be aware of the many legal and contractual obligations that could apply when buying or selling property in this way. <\/p>\n

So, no matter whether you are a buyer or seller, our conveyancing team has the expertise to explain and guide you through this process to ensure you understand all the relevant points about your transaction.<\/p>\n

Family Law<\/strong><\/p>\n

The breakdown of a marriage can be stressful and daunting. Often, property division issues and child welfare and maintenance matters need to be resolved. The process can be protracted, complicated and sometimes costly.<\/p>\n

But we can guide you through the necessary steps and explain the various options available to you. We can assist you to finalise the matter with the least delay and with an outcome suitable to you.<\/p>\n

Leasing:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Commercial leasing is now mostly regulated by the Government of Victoria. Generally speaking there are two types of commercial leases: those that fall within the Retail Leases Act 2003 and those that do not. <\/p>\n

For \u201cnon Retail Leases Act\u201d leases, the lease agreement between the landlord and the tenant falls mainly on contractual obligations between the parties under the \u201ccommon law\u201d (that is: law made by a Judge through a court case). <\/p>\n

But Retail Leases Act leases fall within the Retail Leases Act 2003 legislation and that means that the provisions of that Act virtually override any common law position that may otherwise apply in a Retail Leases Act lease. <\/p>\n

This means that not only must the landlord and the tenant be mindful of what they agree to, they must also ensure their lease is correctly categorised and that the lease provisions do not contain ambiguities and discrepancies that could lead to unnecessary, costly and time consuming disputes. <\/p>\n

There is a mistaken belief that under a Retail Leases Act lease, the tenant pays the landlord\u2019s lawyer for producing the lease. Our experience also tells us there are several other general misconceptions about leases. <\/p>\n

Our firm is up to date with all the relevant legislation regarding Retail Leases Act leases and we have many years experience in producing lease documents for our landlord clients. We can also assist in the transfer of leases and advising tenants on their leasehold rights and responsibilities. <\/p>\n

As well, we can advise on dispute resolution procedures available with commercial leases and discuss the best course of action to achieve your preferred outcome. <\/p>\n

So, whether you are a landlord or tenant; whether the lease comes under the Retail Leases Act 2003 or not, or if you are involved in a lease transfer or dispute, we can help you decide the best way to handle your leasing concerns.<\/p>\n

Wills and Probate<\/strong><\/p>\n
