Looking for legal advice?: Pegasus Bay Law
Buying a home can be very stressful. Seeking legal advice before looking for a property can help to relieve much of that stress.
In particular, it is important to discuss a sale and purchase contract with your lawyer before signing it.
Pegasus Bay Law conveyancing specialists Anneliese Muldoon (above left) and Jess Voysey, have a great deal of experience in providing advice especially to first home buyers.
They can demystify the numerous documents that are so much a part of the process and ensure that their clients are aware of all the various steps that need to be traversed. They also get tremendous personal satisfaction from helping people realise their dreams of owning their own home.
“There are so many aspects associated with buying a house,” say Anneliese and Jess – everything from LIM and title searches and building reports, to sorting out mortgages and insurance. Working through all these and checking contractual terms is what we do on a daily basis. Some clients may also need help with financing their deposit through applications to the KiwiSaver First Home Withdrawal Scheme or the Kāinga Ora Home Start grant.
The eligibility criteria around these schemes are quite complex and the applications take time to complete and be considered.
Pegasus Bay Law welcomes enquiries from anyone who is looking to buy or sell a property.
Call the team on 03 386 2211 or email reception@pegasusbaylaw.co.nz and arrange an appointment at either of their two offices – Westminster Street or Kaiapoi.
