Real Estate Lawyer in Victoria

Dawson Mullin Law provides legal services for residential and commercial real estate and mortgage transactions throughout British Columbia, including purchases and sales, financing and refinancing, title transfers, leasing, private lending, subdivisions, and development matters.

We assist clients from the contract stage through to completion, including preparing and reviewing contracts of purchase and sale, conducting title reviews, due diligence, coordinating financing requirements, preparing closing documents, completing land title registrations, and management of trust funds.

Our real estate practice includes a wide range of residential and commercial property matters across BC, including:

Purchasing or selling property in British Columbia involves more than simply signing a contract. Real estate transactions require coordination between purchasers, sellers, municipal authorities, realtors, lenders, mortgage brokers, and lawyers.

We assist clients throughout the transaction process and work with all parties involved to help ensure the transaction proceeds smoothly and efficiently through to completion.

Title transfers commonly arise outside of a traditional purchase or sale transaction, including transfers involving family members, estates, trusts, marriage or separation, and estate planning arrangements.

We prepare and register transfer documentation and advise clients regarding ownership structures and documentation relating to the transfer of property interests.

Easements, statutory rights of way, building schemes, and restrictive covenants can affect the use and development of property.

We assist clients with reviewing and interpreting charges registered against title, preparing easement and covenant documentation, and advising on how these charges may affect ownership and use of a property.

Subdivision and development matters involve legal and regulatory requirements beyond those found in a standard real estate transaction.

We assist clients with subdivision applications, title matters, easement and covenant documentation, strata development matters, and registration requirements associated with development projects.
