Conveyancing & Property Law - Residential -- Leasing

Our Property Law team can assist you with residential lease requirements.

Lessor/Landlord
We can prepare the lease agreement for you and negotiate this with a potential tenant. A lease agreement is an important document and you need a carefully drafted document to protect your property and your interests.

We can also assist in any disputes with your tenant and having a tenant removed. If you are selling a property that is tenanted then it is critical that you speak to our property law team about what your obligations to your tenant are when the sale takes place.

Tenant/Lessee
A lease gives you security of tenure. But it also obliges you to pay the rent for the whole of the lease period. When you add up all the money you must pay the landlord for the duration of the lease you can see that signing a lease is not something to be done without careful planning. Additionally, the lease may include an option period that will extend your obligations under the arrangement even further.

Our property law team can assist you in negotiating lease terms that are more favourable to you. We can also assist you in resolving any disputes you may have with the Landlord and if you require to exist the Lease earlier than the termination date.

We recommend that before you sign a lease you contact us to discuss the document.
