A local entrepreneur approached us for assistance in purchasing a retail unit in Torquay as the base for their first independent shop. With a launch date already set, the transaction needed to be completed on time to allow fit-out and opening plans to proceed without disruption.
The property had a complex lease history and the sale was subject to several outstanding conditions that required resolution before contracts could be exchanged. Any delay risked impacting the client’s planned opening and associated marketing activities.
We undertook a detailed review of the legal title and worked closely with the seller’s solicitor and the client’s lender to address all outstanding matters. This included clarifying historic lease arrangements, ensuring all necessary consents were in place, and negotiating solutions to satisfy the conditions of sale. Throughout, we maintained clear communication with the client, keeping them informed and confident in progress while ensuring momentum was maintained.
The transaction completed on time, enabling the client to take possession of the unit and proceed with their launch as planned. They entered into the venture with full assurance that the legal foundations of their purchase were sound.
