Priority of the title and zoning record
The strongest right over a property is proved by a properly kept title and zoning record. A review carried out before the transaction prevents many later disputes at the outset.
Real Estate & Tenancy Law
A property is worth only as much as the legal security of the rights attached to it.
Overview
For most families and businesses a property is the most valuable asset they hold, which is why the legal footing of the ownership and lease relationships attached to it matters so greatly. An annotation on the title record, a restriction in the zoning position or a missing clause in a lease can have consequences far larger than the property itself.
The firm takes an approach that puts transactional security first, acting for clients as owner, tenant and contractor alike. From the formation of the contract to the eviction or registration stage, it aims to produce strategic and lasting solutions that protect the client's interests at every step.

Points to Note
The points that most affect the outcome in this area, and are most often overlooked.
The strongest right over a property is proved by a properly kept title and zoning record. A review carried out before the transaction prevents many later disputes at the outset.
Evicting a tenant depends not only on a valid ground but on the periods and procedure specific to that ground. An eviction claim built on the wrong basis may be dismissed.
Adapting or determining the rent depends on defined periods and the time at which the action is brought. An action not brought in time delays the increase that was due.
