Frequently asked questions

When is legal review useful in a property transaction?

A review is useful before committing to a purchase, sale, lease or development arrangement. It helps identify documents to examine and questions about title, terms and the transaction.

What property documents should I prepare for review?

Prepare the title and transfer records available to you, proposed agreement, property particulars and relevant correspondence. Additional records depend on the property, location and transaction.

Can a property review guarantee that there will be no dispute?

A review helps assess the available records and identify risks. It cannot eliminate every risk; findings and further checks depend on the documents and circumstances.
