From first-home purchases to complex development agreements, our team brings clarity and confidence to every transaction.
We handle every aspect of buying or selling residential property, including contract review, title searches, settlement coordination, and stamp duty calculations. Our conveyancers work closely with real estate agents, mortgage brokers, and the Land Titles Office to ensure a seamless transfer. We explain each clause in plain language so you understand exactly what you are signing, and we flag any unusual conditions before they become costly surprises.
Negotiating a commercial lease involves more than just rent. We advise landlords and tenants on outgoings, make-good provisions, options to renew, permitted-use clauses, and bank guarantees. Our goal is to secure terms that protect your business interests while maintaining a positive landlord-tenant relationship. We also draft and review licences, sub-leases, and assignment agreements.
Boundary disagreements, defective building work, co-owner disputes, and easement conflicts can be stressful and expensive. We pursue early resolution through negotiation and mediation wherever possible, but we are equally prepared to represent you in the ACT Civil and Administrative Tribunal or the Supreme Court if litigation becomes necessary. Our approach balances assertiveness with cost-awareness.
Strata schemes come with unique legal obligations. We advise owners' corporations, lot owners, and developers on by-law creation and enforcement, common property repairs, levy disputes, and defect claims. Whether you are purchasing an off-the-plan apartment or managing a large mixed-use complex, our team ensures your rights and responsibilities are crystal clear.
Understanding what a property is truly worth underpins every smart decision. We work alongside certified valuers to help you interpret valuation reports, challenge land tax assessments, and negotiate fair compensation in compulsory acquisition matters. Our lawyers translate complex valuation methodologies into actionable insights for investors, developers, and homeowners alike.
Turning raw land into a viable development requires navigating planning approvals, environmental constraints, and financing structures. We draft and negotiate development agreements, joint venture contracts, and section 88B instruments. Our team also handles subdivision applications, ensuring your project complies with local planning controls and strata legislation from the outset.

"We were first-home buyers with a hundred questions. The team at Greystone explained every clause in our contract, flagged a drainage easement we had missed, and made settlement day completely stress-free. We could not recommend them more highly."— Megan and Daniel Lowe, Belconnen
"After months of arguing with my neighbour over a shared fence line, I engaged Greystone to mediate. They resolved the dispute in two weeks without going to court. Their pragmatic, no-nonsense approach saved me thousands of dollars and a lot of sleepless nights."— Ravi Chandrasekaran, Woden Valley
"As a commercial landlord with twelve tenancies, I needed a firm that understood the nuances of retail and office leasing in the ACT. Greystone reviewed and restructured all my leases, improving my position on make-good clauses and rent review mechanisms significantly."— Sandra Whitfield, Civic
