Foreign Investment Review Board (FIRB) applications.
Glass Lawyers is able to advise and act for foreign investors who wish to purchase property in Australia.
Foreign investors can include individual investors buying property, or persons buying on behalf of a company. If you are a temporary resident on a student or business visa and you are interested in purchasing a property in Australia, Glass lawyers will advise on your eligibility and prepare the Foreign Investment Review Board application/s and the conveyance of the property.
Temporary residents who will be resident in Australia for a period exceeding 12 months are able to purchase property in Australia. If the property has been previously occupied or sold, it must be a principle place of residence and when the temporary residence ceases, the property must be sold.
We will advise on purchase contracts prior to you signing to ensure that FIRB requirements are met.
We will advise individuals holding business visas or other temporary visas buying “first hand” properties, units or land for investment purposes (rental).
We will advise on auction contracts
Students who wish to buy property should also make inquires with Glass Lawyers as international students are entitled to purchase property in Australia.
We are expert in all aspects of property sales and purchases and Australian Immigration Law. It is recommended that you have your property purchases and or sales, handled by us, because of our particular awareness of the special conditions that apply to foreign investors.
