Retirement Village Advice
It may seem unnecessary to have a lawyer review a Retirement Village Agreement or Nursing Home Agreement and advise on the content before signing. However, by not seeking advice before entering into one of these agreements, you may get a nasty surprise down the track and it can cost you a lot of money in the long run if you try to break the agreement or do not meet your obligations.
Retirement living agreements can be very complex, and many people find them to be confusing. Our property lawyers can assist you in understanding your rights and responsibilities, as well as any hidden costs that will apply to you.
Every retirement village or nursing home has its own set of rules and fees associated with living at their facility. It’s important to do your homework and get the right advice before signing on the dotted line.

Independent Legal Advice on Loan Documents
We offer independent legal advice in relation to guarantor documents, mortgages, and securities. If you are signing loan documents, it is important to understand the contents within the contract, the fine-print, and your rights and obligations.
A guarantor document will usually require a lawyer’s certificate. Before signing loan documents, we will give you detailed advice and ensure you understand the effect of the agreement and your role and responsibilities as guarantor on the loan.
Off the Plan Transactions
Off the plan contracts can be complicated to navigate and are often full of hidden clauses. Before making the big decision to purchase a property ‘off the plan’, let us help you ensure you have a full understanding of the relevant clauses and fine print within the contract. By obtaining independent advice from an experienced property lawyer, you can have peace of mind in knowing there will be no nasty surprises along the way, and you know exactly what to expect.
