We have extensive experience in dealing with a broad range of residential and commercial property disputes and Owners Corporation disputes in Victoria. We are dedicated to offering tailored advice and cost effective solutions for our clients.
Property disputes often arise between adjoining property owners over matters related to property boundaries, fencing, noise, trees, and access rights. These disputes can escalate quickly, leading to strained neighbour relationships and increased legal costs.
Disputes can also arise in connection with the Contract of Sale, when buying and selling real estate. Often, we see disputes in the areas of deposit release, owner-builder matters, builder warranty insurance, failure to disclose a material fact, and failure to comply with contract conditions.
Disputes within Owners Corporations can be complex due to the shared nature of property and responsibilities. We have acted for clients in relation to repairs and maintenance of common property matters, financial disputes including change of managers, interpretation of rules, disputes about rights and obligations in relation to use of common property, fencing disputes, alterations and additions to lots or common property.
Understanding and navigating the complexities of neighbourhood property and Owners Corporation disputes in Victoria requires a thorough knowledge of relevant laws and a proactive approach to conflict resolution. Legal advice and mediation services play crucial roles in achieving fair and sustainable outcomes for all parties involved.
