Our property lawyers are well qualified to take care of all your conveyancing requirements. We fully understand the legal implications of buying and selling property. These often extend far beyond the actual sale or purchase, to cover your family, relationship, and financial circumstances. 

We can take care of all the legalities involved in house purchases and sales, and in buying, leasing, or selling commercial premises. We recommend talking to us before you sign an agreement.

How can we help?

  • Residential 

    We can assist with all aspects of buying and selling property. This includes ensuring your wills are up to date or put in place if you do not have one; drafting relationship property agreements; subdividing and developing property; retirement village purchase; and mortgage refinancing.

    We also provide assistance to landlords and tenants on their rights and obligations under the Residential Tenancies Act such as rent reviews, lease renewals, maintenance, repair and reinstatement obligations, and remedies for breach of lease.

  • Commercial

    Buying or selling a business is different from a residential property transaction. We can advise and negotiate on terms and conditions of the offer and assist with due diligence investigations.  

  • Buying and Selling Property

    We fully understand the legal implications of buying and selling property. These often extend far beyond the actual sale or purchase, to your family, relationships, and financial circumstances. We can advise you about these broader related aspects, including making or updating your will, setting up a trust, and taxation implications.

    If you are purchasing a property, we highly recommend getting in touch with us as early in the process as possible. We recommend always reviewing the property title for any potential concerns, which we can assist with.

  • Property Development

    We can assist with all stages of commercial, rural, industrial, and residential subdivisions, developments, and construction. We advise local authorities on issues relating to the Resource Management Act, Public Works Act and Local Government Act associated developments and subdivisions.

  • Refinancing

    We can help you change your mortgage, and assist with timely refinancing if you switch banks. If you’re behind with mortgage payments, or have been issued with a mortgagee sale notice, we’ll negotiate with your bank on your behalf.

  • Relationship Property Agreements

    It’s a difficult time when a relationship ends. We understand the challenges involved – both legal and personal – in preparing relationship property agreements. We can advise you about your entitlements, rights, and the options open to you.

  • Retirement Village Agreements

    If you’re looking to move into a retirement village, rest home, or aged care facility, or are helping a family member with this, we can advise you about occupation right agreements, and help you understand all the documentation this comes with.
