Whether you are buying or selling a home, commercial or investment property, refinancing your mortgage, or transferring title as part of another arrangement, our knowledgeable team can assist with every step of the process.
Contract Negotiation
We can assist with negotiating your purchase and sale agreement, to ensure that the terms of the signed contract clearly reflect your intended agreement. Careful contract drafting can help to prevent costly litigation if a dispute arises and is especially important in complex commercial transactions and transactions with a lengthy delay prior to closing.
Title Review
Our title review services help you understand the property you are buying so you can determine whether it meets your needs. Documents may be registered against title to property which restrict certain types of businesses or activities (including home-based businesses) or require contributions to shared maintenance expenses (such as maintenance costs for a community amenity building). Documents registered against title may apply even in circumstances where the municipality does not have those same restrictions for similar properties.
Due Diligence
Commercial and development properties are subject to a variety of environmental, archeological, municipal, safety, tax and other compliance obligations, many of which may transfer to a new owner following the purchase of those properties. Our due diligence services can help you discover these obligations and any outstanding non-compliance so you can assess the risk prior to waiving subject conditions for your purchase.
Financing
Real property purchases are substantial investments, and most individuals and companies require financing to help fund the purchase price. We can assist with the preparation, registration and funding of your residential or commercial mortgage and help make the funding as seamless as possible.
Conveyancing
The process for closing a property purchase, sale or mortgage can seem difficult and overwhelming, but it does not need to be. We carefully explain all elements of the closing process, so you understand the timeline and know what to expect leading up to the closing date for your transaction. We offer convenient meeting locations for document execution, with appointments available either in our downtown Vancouver office, or our satellite meeting location at 8661 201 Street in Langley. Our team will support you from start to finish to make your transaction as simple and convenient as possible.
