What is a commercial land contract?
A commercial land contract outlines the terms and conditions for the sale and purchase of land intended for business or investment purposes.
What costs are involved in purchasing commercial land?
The costs of buying a commercial property may include transfer duty, registration fees, legal fees, search costs, due diligence enquiries, inspection reports and lease reviews/reports.
Ongoing costs may include local authority rates and water, insurance, land tax and body corporate levies (if applicable).
Why is Queensland’s Property Law Act changing?
The Property Law Act 1974 has been in place for almost 50 years. The new Property Law Act 2023 will modernise legal language, provide consistency across transactions and strengthen consumer protection, especially around disclosure.
