Complex Property Matters
Complex Property Matters
Not all property matters are simple. Some require deeper legal insight, strategic structuring, and a steady hand to manage risks. These are known as complex transactions and they demand the expertise of experienced property lawyers.
At Wakefield Lawyers, we handle intricate property matters for clients across Gippsland and beyond. We work closely with you to ensure your transaction is legally sound, financially secure, and aligned with your goals.
What Is a Complex Transaction?
A complex transaction is any property matter that goes beyond a standard conveyance, typically involving unusual circumstances, specialised parties, or heightened legal and tax considerations.
You might be dealing with a complex transaction if your matter involves:
- Transfers between family members, spouses, or business partners
- Property transactions involving superannuation funds or family trusts
- Arrangements with private lenders
- Lost title applications or defective property titles
- Properties with non-compliant building works
- Nominations, sub-sales, or off-market deals
If you're unsure whether your matter qualifies as complex, we're here to assess and advise.
Key Risks We Help You Navigate:
- Stamp Duty (Land Transfer Duty): including exemptions, concessions, and the risk of double duty
- Capital Gains Tax (CGT): ensuring correct treatment and minimising liability
- GST obligations: particularly in relation to development, commercial property, or trust structures
Why Experience Matters
Complex transactions come with high stakes. A misstep in contract drafting, tax advice, or compliance can have long-term financial consequences. That’s why you need a legal team that not only understands the law — but also the practical realities of these transactions.
At Wakefield Lawyers, we bring the legal precision and commercial understanding needed to protect your interests and deliver a smooth outcome.
Take the Uncertainty Out of Your Transaction
Whether your matter is truly complex, or simply has a few grey areas, getting clear, experienced advice early on is critical.
Contact Wakefield Lawyers to arrange a consultation. We’ll ensure your transaction is structured correctly from the start so you can move forward with confidence.

A Smarter, Flexible Way to Fund Your Estate Administration Matter
Managing a deceased estate and the probate process often means covering more than just legal fees. Executors can face costs like insurance, property maintenance, and other expenses — often out of their own pocket, with reimbursement to come later. They may even want to improve assets prior to sale.
Through JustFund, eligible Executors and Beneficiaries can access flexible funding to cover these expenses as well as legal fees, with no repayments until probate is finalised. This helps ease financial pressure while ensuring the estate is preserved. Contact us for more information, or visit JustFund.com.au
