If you’re buying an investment property, we’ll guide you through the legal process and advise on relevant commercial considerations such as rental agreements, lender terms and resale planning. Our advice is practical and commercially focused.

Buying with a partner, friend or family member? We’ll advise you on the best ownership structure, joint tenants or tenants in common and help you prepare a declaration of trust where needed to protect unequal contributions. Making a Will is also highly recommended in these cases.
