Conveyancing & Property
Residential conveyancing (buying and selling property)
Whether it’s an investment property or your home, buying or selling a house or apartment is a big decision. It can be hard to find a property and hard to sell a property. It’s a process with lots of moving parts beyond settling on a price. And lots of stress sometimes too. That’s where we come in. You make the decisions and we will help make it all happen as smoothly as possible.
What can you expect from us?
We’ll make sure you know what you need to know about the transaction. We’ll meet you (in person or by phone / video) and talk through all the important stuff and find out what’s important to you. We’ll be available on the phone or by email every day and make sure you always know what’s going on. We’ll keep everyone in the loop – the bank, the agent. We’ll make sure that the practical details don’t get forgotten. If there’s something that’s important to you, we’ll help you chase it down all the rabbit holes.

Buying, selling and leasing commercial and rural property
We help clients with negotiating leases, sales and purchases of retail and commercial property.
Every commercial property transaction is different. The context of the transaction is important. The benefits and risks are different. Our job is to help you achieve your commercial property goals.
Buying / selling
We’ll take care of GST and stamp duty issues. We’ll help you structure a land-owning entity. We’ll help you negotiate a good deal. We’ll make sure you know what you need to know about the transaction – where the risks are and how to deal with them. We’ll talk you through all the important stuff and find out what’s important to you. We know that if you’re in business you don’t have time to burn talking about the basics. We’ll cut through the noise and focus on the important bits. We’ll keep all the right people informed.
Leasing
We’ll help you to negotiate the deal and finalise the paperwork. Leases are long and often boring documents, but the devil is in the detail. We’ll make sure you know the details that you need to know. If it’s a retail lease, we’ll help you address the retail leases legislation.
Whether your leasing, buying or selling, we don’t run a sausage factory that forces our process on you – we’ll talk with you in a way that suits you. Face to face, email, phone or video - we’re easy.
Rural / farms
We help people buying and selling farms. We get it right.
Government and public authorities
We act for government organisations and public authorities in land acquisition and sale. We understand the statutory frameworks that govern land acquisition and can help implement the organisation’s plans. We also understand the different needs of public organisations and tailor our process to help make your job easier.
Property Development
We help with large and small development projects. On the big end, we help developers and builders with subdivision projects. We can shape our workflow to suit your needs and make your project successful but also as simple as possible. There’s no such thing as “this is how we do it”. We tailor our service to how you do it.
On the small end we can help you navigate the (sometimes impenetrable) world of small subdivisions, easements, covenants, boundary adjustments and all aspects of land registry and titling. We also act for landowners in relation to acquisitions of land and easements by utilities.
