BUYING OR SELLING A BUSINESS IN CANBERRA
We review or prepare the sale contract and check the lease, equipment, stock, staff and any restraint of trade. We also deal with the other side’s lawyer and work through to completion.
If you’re buying, we’ll tell you what to check before you commit. If you’re selling, we’ll help you get your documents ready so the sale goes smoothly.
COMMERCIAL & RETAIL LEASES
A lease is often a business’s biggest commitment. Before you sign, we’ll explain the rent and increases, the outgoings, the term and options. This includes any make-good obligations, assignment and what happens if you need to leave early. Retail shop leases in ACT vs NSW have their own rules and disclosure requirements, so we will check they’ve been followed.
