Updates from the Teddington Legal Gold Coast Blog - Part #5:

Teddington Legal Gold Coast - Conveyancing and Business Law

Updates from the Teddington Legal Gold Coast Website:


As well as a bit of a revamp of the website, we've continued updating the Teddington Legal Gold Coast blog with some new articles on the latest developments in property law in Queensland. Below is a sneak peek at some of these.


The Legal Obligations of a Business Under Australia’s Privacy Laws:
At Teddington Legal Gold Coast we act for many small and medium sized businesses, assisting them to meet their commercial law obligations. One of the most common concerns we come across is whether a business is meeting its obligations when it comes to Australia’s privacy laws.

Mortgage Tips - Acting as Guarantor for Your Child:
You only have to open a newspaper, turn on the TV, or do a quick Google search to see the latest news on the growth of property prices along the east coast. While Sydney is grabbing the headlines, more recently the Gold Coast has streaked ahead, with a huge growth in prices being attributed to the upcoming Commonwealth Games.

Conveyancing Goes Digital - The Introduction of PEXA in Queensland:
The conveyancing process in Queensland is in the midst of a dramatic change with the introduction of PEXA, or e-conveyancing. The property law profession is in the midst of moving away from a manual paper based process and towards a fully electronic process that does away with paper all together.

Tips for Buying – Finding Your Perfect Property:
Finding houses to buy or rent is easy. Finding the perfect house to buy or rent that suits the specific wants and needs of everyone who’ll live in it is the real challenge.

But there are a number of ways to ensure that your house-hunting journey ends with a property that everyone can be happy with.


Rates and Water Search – Making Adjustments at Settlement:
As part of the conveyancing process, your solicitor will undertake several searches of the property that you are buying to ensure the property is free from defects and all costs are accounted for prior to settlement. One of the searches they will undertake is a council rates and water search.
