We have experienced staff ready to advise you on all aspects of buying or selling commercial or industrial property.
From the first stages of drafting a contract within the current law, while guarding your rights and advising your obligations, we will liaise with professionals and authorities throughout the course of your matter, right through to settlement and notifying all appropriate agencies and persons of change of ownership. Naturally we will keep you informed of progress each step of the way.
Hamilton Island & Crown Leasehold
Our firm’s continuing association with Hamilton Island began with the establishment of the resort and accommodation in 1983. Our expertise includes extensive knowledge relating to the various title structures with respect to land, villas, apartments and marina berths on the Island, lease tenures, licence agreements, and company title and service company constitutions and requirements on behalf of developers, buyers and sellers.
We will be happy to act as your solicitor in any leasehold transaction, using our staff’s broad experience in this area to direct your matter to a positive outcome.
Business
When purchasing a business there are many areas where you need advice and assistance. We have fail safe systems of moving the matter forward, recording important dates throughout the transaction and ensuring notifications are sent to the appropriate authorities, firms or banks within specified time limits. Your purchase or sale will receive paramount attention on a daily basis and our staff will be available for any questions or advice you require until all matters are finalised.
