Getting a mortgage isn’t just about rates and repayments — the fine print matters. Whether you’re buying your first home or refinancing one you already own, it’s important to understand exactly what you’re signing. Our legal team helps break it all down clearly.

No matter where you are in your property journey — buying your first home or expanding your investment portfolio — we’ve got your back. We handle everything from discharging old mortgages to managing refinancing and advising on equity release. This legal support isn’t just a nice-to-have — it’s essential. It helps protect your property, avoid future issues, and make sure you’re getting terms that actually suit your needs.

Modification or Discharge of Restrictive Covenants

Restrictive covenants are legal rules tied to a property’s title that control how it can be used or built upon, like limits on building size or type. If these rules are broken, or if you want to change them, our lawyers can help, but it’s a difficult process that can be costly and time-consuming

Lost Land Title Applications

When your Certificate of Title – the crucial document proving you own your property in Jamaica – goes missing, we’re here to guide you through the precise legal steps to apply for a new one, making the stringent process as smooth as possible.

Notation of Death on Title & Transfer by Transmission

When a property owner in Jamaica passes away, updating the property title quickly and accurately is super important because of succession law. We handle all the legal steps to get the death officially noted on the title and make sure the property gets transferred to the right beneficiaries or personal representatives.

Estate Planning & Administration (Property-Related)

Beyond just handling property transfers after someone has passed, our real estate lawyers also help with planning ahead. This means we can assist you in creating your will so you can clearly lay out exactly how your properties and other assets should be shared after you’re gone.

Commercial & Residential Lease Agreements

Whether you’re a landlord or a tenant, we’re here to help you with lease agreements for both homes and businesses. We handle drafting, reviewing, and negotiating key aspects like rent, duration, and maintenance to protect your interests. Our role ensures you fully understand your commitments and secure advantageous terms, especially when dealing with complex commercial leases.

Mortgage & Property Financing Legal Advice

We help clients make sense of the many mortgage options available in Jamaica and choose the one that actually fits their goals and risk level. Whether it’s a fixed-rate, adjustable-rate, bridging loan or construction financing, we explain how each option works and what it means for you legally and financially — both now and in the long run.

This kind of guidance helps our clients make confident, informed decisions and build a financing strategy that fits their current situation and future property plans.

We also step in as the go-between with financial institutions, helping to move things along smoothly. From clarifying legal points for lenders to making sure all your obligations are covered in the contract, we make sure nothing gets missed and everything’s done properly.

And if you hit a rough patch — whether it’s a potential default or you need to renegotiate your loan — we’re here to represent you and help find practical solutions. From the very first application to final discharge, we’re committed to helping you secure a mortgage deal that’s strong, fair, and legally sound.
