What we handle

The work, in plain terms.

Residential conveyancing, HDB and private

Purchase, sale and the whole chain of deadlines in between. We act for buyers and sellers, and we would rather be brought in before the option is exercised than after.

Refinancing and mortgages

Acting on a refinancing, discharging the existing mortgage and dealing with the incoming bank's solicitors.

Commercial and industrial property

Sale and purchase of commercial and industrial units, including the tenancy position on completion.

Landlord and tenant

Tenancy agreements drafted properly at the start, and the less pleasant end of the relationship: rent arrears, breaches, and recovery of possession.

Ownership and title

How you hold a property matters. Joint tenancy carries a right of survivorship, so the property passes automatically to the surviving owner. Tenancy in common does not, and the share passes under the will or the intestacy rules. We will talk it through, and it is worth thinking about alongside your will.

How it works

Three steps, no mystery.

01

Tell us what happened

A short call, an email or a message. You explain the situation in your own words. There is no charge for finding out whether we are the right firm for you.

02

We give you a straight assessment

What your position is, what the process looks like, roughly how long it takes, and what it is likely to cost. If we think you do not have a case, we will say so.

03

We act, and you deal with Mr Tan

You are not handed to a junior. The lawyer you met is the lawyer running your matter, and you can reach him.

Questions

Questions we are asked.

General information, not advice on your situation. For that, speak to us.

How much will conveyancing cost?
Ask us for a written quotation before you commit to anything. Conveyancing is one of the areas where we can usually be clear about cost at the outset, and you are entitled to know.
How long does a purchase take?
A private resale typically completes in the region of ten to twelve weeks from the exercise of the option, although this varies. HDB transactions run to HDB's own appointment schedule, which sets the pace.
Do you act on HDB flats?
Yes, for both purchase and sale, including the HDB appointment process.
My tenant has stopped paying. What can I do?
That depends on what your tenancy agreement actually says, which is why the drafting matters. Send us the agreement and we will tell you what your options are and what they are likely to cost.
