Company Title was introduced in New South Wales in 1961 and refers to the purchasing of shares, allowing the occupation of units or spaces within a building which is owned by a company.
This ownership system is less common nowadays, making the regulatory and legislative components of Company Title less known and confusing to many. At Hones Lawyers we guide, assess and advise on the stability of the company and any legal requirements you will have to adhere to if you choose to purchase the “shares.”
Purchasing shares within a Company Title does not necessarily make it more volatile compared to buying a regular property or property under strata title. As the company owns the building and land, and you own shares within the company, it makes matters a little trickier than buying a property which includes the land. To ensure the security of your shares, the legal requirements need to be thoroughly dissected to make sure you understand your requirements, obligations, and rights.
With our 45 years of experience in Company Title Law and all things property, Hones Lawyers are here to answer your questions, evaluate the company, and explain your obligations and rights to make sure you know exactly what you are investing in.
Hones Lawyers have a Company Title Constitution that has been tried and tested and is accepted by a number of leading financial institutions, alleviating many of the roadblocks that arise from Company Title buildings.
