The law applying to Real Estate around the world is both similar and different.

Law Business Research invited me to join its expert panel to contribute the chapter on Australia to the international Real Estate Law Review which covers 35 countries from around the world including the United States, Indonesia, Hong Kong and Singapore.

All authors answer a common set of questions in our chapters, which are:

INTRODUCTION TO THE LEGAL FRAMEWORK

OVERVIEW OF REAL ESTATE ACTIVITY

FOREIGN INVESTMENT

STRUCTURING THE INVESTMENT

REAL ESTATE OWNERSHIP

LEASES OF BUSINESS PREMISES

DEVELOPMENTS IN PRACTICE

OUTLOOK AND CONCLUSIONS

The Australian Chapter I have written is an excellent birds-eye view of real estate law in Australia. It is particularly useful for interstate and overseas investors.
