A commercial settlement includes reviewing the contract, checking leases or tenancy agreements, verifying zoning and permitted use, calculating settlement adjustments, liaising with lenders and accountants, preparing transfer documents, and ensuring compliance with WA regulations.
Commercial Property Settlements
Not sure whether you need a conveyancer or a lawyer? Start with us.
Some commercial matters can be handled efficiently by a settlement agent. Others involve leasing arrangements, GST considerations, development agreements or legal issues where specialist legal advice may be beneficial.
At Federation Settlements, we’re happy to review your transaction and help determine the most appropriate path forward.
If your matter can be handled by a settlement agent, we’ll let you know. If legal advice would be beneficial, we can refer you to trusted property lawyers we regularly work with.

FAQs
What’s involved in a commercial property settlement?
How is a commercial settlement different from a residential one?
Commercial settlements often involve more complex contracts, GST and tax considerations, lease reviews, and zoning compliance checks. They also require settlement adjustments for rent and outgoings, which don’t generally apply in standard residential transactions.
Do I need a lawyer for a commercial property transaction?
Not always. Some commercial transactions can be handled by a settlement agent, while others may benefit from legal advice. We’re happy to review your matter and help determine the most appropriate approach.
Can Federation Settlements act on commercial property transactions?
Yes. We can assist with many commercial property transactions and can also work alongside lawyers, accountants and other advisers where required.
