This CPD session covers the risk areas that come up in complex property transactions - the ones that can trip you up if you're not looking for them.

Meldon will draw on real-world case examples to walk through:

• Critical steps in high-risk transactions from instruction through to settlement
• Managing non-standard contract terms, special conditions and due diligence issues
• Practical risk management when acting through trusts, companies and SMSFs
• Identity verification, fraud risk and managing authority (including powers of attorney and foreign/non-resident clients)
• Common SRO, FIRB and ATO issues and how to navigate them
• Key leasing risks in commercial and retail property transactions

What you'll leave with:

A sharper understanding of where things go wrong in complex conveyancing, practical strategies for non-standard transactions and structured entities, and insights you can apply to client matters straight away.
