Property Law

Whether you’re buying, selling, or refinancing property, our goal is to make your property transaction as easy as possible. You’ll find us knowledgeable, pragmatic and friendly - and available when you need us.

We offer dedicated services for first home buyers, residential buyers and sellers, refinancing transactions, residential property investors, land developers and commercial property investors.

Whatever your property plans are, our team can help.

First Home Buyers

There’s a lot of jargon that comes with entering the housing market. We’ll cut through and provide you with prompt, easy-to-understand, advice to help you navigate the purchase of your first home.

We will help you draft conditions before you make your offer, and then review everything to ensure your contract (and the property you’re buying) is free from any fishhooks. We’ll work with your lender and/or broker, Kainga Ora and your Kiwisaver provider to ensure that the funds you need are available and withdrawn in time.

We’ll be responsive to your enquiries and clear with you about deadlines and your obligations, and we’ll do all this for a fixed fee so there are no surprises.

This means that you can focus on the really important things - like finding the perfect first home.
