Conveyancing & Property Law

If you are purchasing or selling any type of real property, or interest in real property, in Victoria, it is likely that you will require legal advice.

It is very important that, before you enter into any contract for the purchase or sale of land or an interest in land, you contact us for preliminary advice. Once your contract is signed, you may not be able to cancel it, even if you did not understand the terms.

Purchasers need to be sure that the land (and, if applicable, buildings) they are purchasing meet their expectations. We inspect the vendors statement and provide you with information about what has been disclosed about the land. We will also advise you if additional information is required. explaining the different instruments that affect the land, and how this can affect you. We also assist you to keep to the many different timelines in a contract.

Vendors need to be sure that they have made all the relevant disclosures required by the law. In some circumstances, if a disclosure is not made correctly, the contract can be rescinded by the purchaser without penalty. This could leave the vendor having to pay commission to an Estate agent or to pay re-advertising fees, without being able to rely on a purchaser’s deposit for relief.
