WHAT THE OFFER ENTITLES YOU TO:

1. Legal Advice

Rae & Partners have agreed (along with a number of other participating Law Firms) to advise eligible first home buyers with respect to any auction conditions, the terms of the proposed Contract and/or the title to a proposed property purchase including advice as to any easements or restrictive covenants. This advice will be offered prior to the client's attendance at an auction, or prior to them executing a Contract of Sale.

The consultation would be free on the basis that Rae & Partners, as your chosen legal firm, is provided with a copy of the Contract, Title, Schedule of Easements and other relevant documents on which you seek our advice.
