What is property law?
It might sound self-explanatory, but there’s a lot more to property law than meets the eye. Yes, property law involves the settlement of property, but life is often more complicated than signing paperwork and handing over a set of keys.
Property lawyers are experts in dealing with conveyancing (the transferral of property from one owner to another). They can help you transfer titles of land, understand council and building restrictions, tax implications, and even approval processes should you wish to make changes to your property.
When it comes to disputes, property lawyers are experts at understanding your rights so you don’t lose out on the asset you’ve worked so hard to acquire.
What does a conveyancer do?
Think of a conveyancer as your “right hand” man or woman when it comes to purchasing property. We can review contracts and alert you to any red flags before you decide to make an offer.
Should you wish to move ahead with a purchase, we’ll act as the conduit between yourself, the vendor and the bank, ensuring that the funds and property are transferred and settle promptly and easily on settlement day.
