Property Law Services We Offer in Adelaide
Our Adelaide property solicitors provide end-to-end legal support for residential and commercial property matters across South Australia.
BUYING & SELLING PROPERTY
Our conveyancing lawyers in Adelaide review contracts of sale, conduct due diligence on title and zoning, negotiate terms, and coordinate settlement through PEXA. Whether it’s an apartment in the CBD, a family home in Unley, a character property in Norwood, or a lifestyle block in the Adelaide Hills, we handle the legal side. Considering a purchase? Get your contract reviewed before you sign.
COMMERCIAL & RETAIL LEASING
Commercial leases can lock you into terms for years. Rent reviews, outgoings, make-good clauses, and renewal options all need careful review. For retail tenants, the Retail and Commercial Leases Act 1995 (SA) provides specific protections. We act for landlords and tenants on lease drafting, negotiation, renewals, and SACAT disputes. Signing a lease on Rundle Street? Get it reviewed first.
PROPERTY DISPUTES & LITIGATION
We handle contract disputes, vendor disclosure failures, boundary disputes, easement issues, caveat disputes, and deposit disputes. Adelaide’s growing apartment market has increased disputes around delayed settlements and contract conditions. Our real estate lawyers in Adelaide resolve matters through negotiation where possible, and represent clients at SACAT and SA courts when necessary.
STRATA & COMMUNITY TITLE LAW
Building defects, by-law breaches, committee disputes, and special levies create legal headaches for owners and corporations. We represent lot owners and strata corporations in disputes under the Strata Titles Act 1988 (SA) and the Community Titles Act 1996 (SA). Challenging a levy or dealing with building defects? We can advise on your options.
PROPERTY TRANSFERS & TITLE CHANGES
Adding or removing a name from a title, transferring property between family members, or restructuring ownership for asset protection all require careful legal work. Stamp duty exemptions may apply depending on your circumstances, so we advise on the most cost-effective approach before lodging with Land Services SA.

John Zhang has been absolutely great in helping me with my EOI and application for a skilled visa in Australia. On both calls I've had with John, I have had a multitude of questions for him which he answered in depth and gave me all the information I required. He really has a great amount of knowledge and I would highly recommend him and the CMI legal team for their efficiency and professionalism.

I was very fortunate to have Tina TANG from CMI as my conveyancing solicitor for the recent sale of my property. She demonstrated exceptional professionalism and dedication throughout the entire process — from preparing the contract, exchanging contracts, right through to settlement. What impressed me the most is that even after settlement, she continued to go above and beyond to assist me as the vendor, making sure everything was properly taken care of.
Her diligence, patience, and attention to detail gave me great peace of mind and took away a lot of the stress of selling a property. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, professional, and truly supportive conveyancing solicitor. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

We had the pleasure of working with Tina as our solicitor for our first home purchase, and we couldn’t have been in better hands. She carefully explained every step of the process, guiding us through what initially felt overwhelming and unfamiliar. Buying off the plan made us particularly cautious, especially when it came to reviewing legal documents. Tina’s meticulous approach put us at ease—she ensured we both clearly understood each aspect, taking the time to highlight and reorganise information to make it more accessible. Her dedication and professionalism made the entire experience far less daunting, and we’re truly grateful for her support.
