If the traditional approach to buying or selling a property is not working or you are having difficulty obtaining bank finance then we may have another way to assist your sale or purchase, known as vendor finance. Vendor finance, sometimes called seller finance is nothing new and has beenaround for many years, and is often used in one form or another in commercial transactions to enable the purchase or sale of property through vendor finance terms.

neighbourhood dispute
Disputes between neighbours can arise for an array of reasons and the rights at law which apply to resolving those disputes depend heavily on the cause of the issue. When someones legal rights are interfered with, there are legal mechanisms in place that can be enforced. It is always preferable to sort out neighbourhood disputes amicably by talking to your neighbour and/or coming to a mutually acceptable solution.
easements
Easements in Queensland will either benefit or burden property. Generally speaking, an easement will grant a right to the benefited land to use or access the burdened land for one reason or another, most commonly for access or for infrastructure services to run through. The Land Title Act 1994 (Qld) governs the creation of easements while the Property Law Act 1974 (Qld) (“the Act”) determines the instances when a court may intervene and extinguish them.
encroachment
An encroachment is when a structure or object on one lot owner’s or occupier’s land extends beyond his boundaries and encroaches on the adjoining land of another. For example, if your neighbour was to construct a shed that partially hangs over your land, or if they were to build a patio or a porch that hangs over your property line, this may be considered to be an encroachment onto your land.
adverse possession
Adverse possession means someone has legal title over property because they’ve been in possession of it for a long time. This can occur even if someone else believes they have title to the land. This commonly occurs with land boundaries – for example, if a fence has extended past its boundary the neighbour may have adverse possession over the land.
Retirement Village
The sale of units in retirement villages is heavily regulated, with minimum standards required for disclosure and contract documentation. Retirement villages have many different kinds of legal structures, each with their own risks and benefits. We have extensive experience in reviewing and advising clients before investing in such structures.
property ownership dispute
The manner in which an interest in property is held is an important consideration. Property disputes are usually triggered by changing circumstances – a relationship or business breakdown, financial stress or the death of a co-owner. It is important to obtain professional legal advice regarding ownership interests before a dispute arises.
Caveat
Before you can lodge a caveat over land, you must have a caveatable interest. We have extensive experience in advising clients on what constitutes a caveatable interest and what is required to register or remove caveats from the land register. Whether you need to lodge or remove a caveat, it is imperative that you take immediate action to protect your rights.

GUARANTORS advice
Banks, financial institutions and other third parties may require a person to obtain independent advice regarding the person’s obligations under a personal guarantee. It is important that, as a guarantor, you understand your obligations in respect of providing a guarantee.
Mortgage / Loan
Private mortgage lending is a growing destination for investor funds. The security of such investment requires accurate and compliant documentation. Our Brisbane Lawyers can assist with the preperation or review of mortgage or caveatable instruments.
Put & Call Options
