A “make good” clause is a standard part of commercial leases, and it sets out what condition the tenant must leave the property in at the end of the lease.

Simply put, it means tenants must return the space to its original state, and the goal is to make turnover smoother for landlords and tenants.

There are several different ways tenants can meet their make good obligations, depending on what is agreed in the lease.

Planning to stay in your contracted space long term? Look out for clauses, such as your 'option to renew'.

When purchasing residential property in Queensland, buyers are entitled to a statutory cooling-off period under the Property Occupations Act 2014 (QLD). It works as a safeguard designed to protect buyers of residential property in Queensland.

Buyers should ensure they understand the terms and conditions of the contract and seek legal advice if they are uncertain about any aspect of the process.

Thinking about buying property?

Property markets across Australia have seen strong buyer demand in recent years. According to CoreLogic research, housing values and competition have remained steady across many regions.

In active markets, buyers are often required to move quickly once the right property becomes available. However, purchasing property involves more than simply agreeing on a price.
Contracts, conditions and settlement requirements form an important part of the transaction.

Taking the time to understand these legal aspects before signing can help ensure the process proceeds smoothly and reduce the risk of unexpected issues later.
