Buying, Selling or Refinancing — We Make It Simple

We make buying, selling or refinancing your property as smooth and stress-free as possible, so you understand every document you sign.

Clear, Practical Property Law Advice

Whether it's your first home, an investment property, or a refinance — we handle the legal work so you can focus on the move.

Property transactions involve dozens of documents, strict deadlines and a lot of detail. We take care of all the legal work — from reviewing your agreement and checking the title, through to settlement day — keeping you informed at every step in plain English.

Our fees are published upfront and include GST. We'll send you a personalised quote before you commit to anything — no obligation and no pressure.

We act for buyers, sellers and borrowers throughout New Zealand. Most of our work is done electronically, so it doesn't matter where in the country you or your property are located.
