Our Property Lawyers Specialise in:

Selling a property

When selling residential real estate, it is important to seek trusted advice from a lawyer who can help guide you through the process. Our team can review the contract before you sign it to ensure your interests are protected and that you understand your rights and obligations under the contract.

Buying a property

When buying real estate, it is important to understand exactly what you are getting. Obtaining the right legal advice before you sign a contract can help you negotiate the best deal. Our property lawyers can perform all the required searches and checks before you commit to buying, and also run through the terms and conditions of the contract with you, helping you negotiate any special conditions you would like to include as part of the transaction.

Commercial conveyancing

Commercial conveyancing can be complex and is a significantly different process to that of residential conveyancing. There are many matters that need to be considered to ensure the purchase or transfer of commercial real estate is successful. Our Brisbane property lawyers have the state-specific knowledge of the relevant areas of law you need to consider when completing a commercial transaction. Factors that will need to be taken into consideration include entity structure, tax, retail and commercial leases, and town planning.

We are also able to assist you with:

Retirement Village Agreements and Nursing Home Agreements can be overwhelming to understand. They are complex documents and the fine print can often be confusing to interpret. Many people find themselves in difficult situations after entering into these types of agreements, then wanting to alter the terms of the agreement or exit the facility early, only to be faced with expensive consequences for breaking the agreement and not meeting their obligations.

At Attwood Marshall Lawyers, we can provide you with clear and helpful advice when you are making the decision to enter a retirement village or nursing home.

We will help you understand the agreement, and ensure you know exactly what your rights and responsibilities are under the contract. We will also identify any hidden costs you will be expected to pay so that you do not get any nasty surprises later on.

Every retirement facility is different and each one will have their own set of rules and fees. We can help you navigate your options and ensure you best interests are protected

It is important to obtain independent legal advice in relation to guarantor documents, mortgages, and securities when you are signing loan documents. We can help you understand the terms and conditions of the loan and provide you with detailed advice regarding what your rights and obligations are under the contract.

Buying a property off-the-plan can involve a number of risks. It is important to consider the risks and terms of the contract before you sign the agreement, including any hidden clauses. Our Brisbane lawyers will review the contact with you thoroughly, assist with negotiating any changes necessary, and ensure the property is in line with your expectations.

It is our aim to give you peace of mind in knowing there will be no nasty surprises along the way when making an off-the-plan purchase.  

Our Brisbane property lawyers can assist with all body corporate legal matters, providing advice in relation to by-laws and compliance with legislation.
