With large plots of land becoming scarcely available, more people are deciding to join their neighbours to sell as a group to developers. Without the right foundation, groups can fall apart, and you can be taken advantage of. The help of a lawyer can ensure that the sale goes smoothly for everyone.
Selling as a group to developers is much more complicated than your average property transaction. Antunes Lawyers are here to make things simple. We negotiate with developers, owners, and real estate agents to obtain the best offer for you and the group.
When you’re selling as a group to a developer, many factors can impact your potential profit. One of the most important documents that will affect your sale is a Collective Agreement (Joint Sales Agreement or Group Sales Agreement). A Collective Agreement creates rules for the group, establishes how much each owner will receive from a sale, and may also create a committee that will make administrative decisions throughout negotiations.
If you’re not actively involved in drafting or reviewing your Collective Agreement, you might be taken advantage of. Antunes Lawyers can take the stress out of selling your property to developers and ensure that your voice is heard amongst the group. Our goal is to make sure that your experience is as pleasant and rewarding as possible.
I am now a very happy first homeowner thanks to Antunes Lawyers. The whole process was overwhelming to me and with a short settlement I needed a miracle. I highly recommend Antunes Lawyers to any first home buyer in Sydney.

We worked with Antunes on both the sale of one property and purchase of another, picking up key value levers which helped us back out of some less favourable deals, advising on complexities around settlement timelines and helping with a last-minute negotiation on our final property. Throughout all of this the team were highly communicative, and always had our best interests in mind - thanks guys!
