16.01.2022 BREAKING: New laws will protect animals who are victims of violence. Animals will soon be included in Apprehended Domestic Violence Orders, animal abuse will be... recognised as a form of domestic violence, and a grant of half a million will upgrade refuges to become animal friendly so victims can leave violence with animals. This morning I was at a press conference with the NSW Attorney General announcing these groundbreaking new domestic and family violence reforms that will be brought to the House in the coming weeks. These reforms not only recognise the link between animal abuse and domestic violence, but provide resources to overcome many of the barriers faced by victims escaping violence with companion animals. These reforms go a long way in protecting both animal and human victims of domestic violence. But there’s more work to be done in this area. We need tougher penalties to deter animal abuse, and a revision of our tenancy laws to ensure affordable and secure rental accommodation is accessible for families to stay together with animals long-term. The Animal Justice Party are committed to working toward even more reform in this space.

13.01.2022 Lawyer joke for our peeps

12.01.2022 T'was a week before Christmas, And all through the town, People wore masks, That covered their frown. The frown had begun... Way back in the Spring, When a global pandemic Changed everything. They called it corona, But unlike the beer, It didn’t bring good times, It didn’t bring cheer. Airplanes were grounded, Travel was banned. Borders were closed Across air, sea and land. As the world entered lockdown To flatten the curve, The economy halted, And folks lost their nerve. From March to July We rode the first wave, People stayed home, They tried to behave. When summer emerged The lockdown was lifted. But away from caution, Many folks drifted. Now it’s December And cases are spiking, Wave two has arrived, Much to our disliking. It’s true that this year Has had sadness a plenty, We’ll never forget The year 2020. And just ‘round the corner - The holiday season, But why be merry? Is there even one reason? To decorate the house And put up the tree, Who will see it, No one but me. But outside my window The rain gently falls, And I think to myself, Let’s deck the halls! So, I gather the ribbon, The garland and bows, As I play those old carols, My happiness grows. Christmas is not cancelled And neither is hope. If we lean on each other, I know we can cope Keep it going! (Copy&Paste) See more

03.01.2022 THE RULES OF ONLINE AUCTIONS - Today we released this months real estate hot topics podcast featuring Greg Jemmeson, These are some of the highlights. The coro...navirus has changed the world forever. For real estate, it has made us go digital. Online auctions have been fast-tracked. Two weekends ago, 10,000 people hit the AuctionNow site. Thats a captive audience of 10,000 consumers. Digital is a whole new way of doing business. Going digital is good for our industry. It makes us - and the process of selling - transparent. But online auctions raise a lot of questions. I spoke with real estate legal expert Greg Jemmeson from JemmesonFisher to get some clarity. Greg says, "Even though auctions have moved online, auctions are still auctions. The same conditions, laws and rules apply as they have in the past." Auctions conditions have to be displayed. Bidders must be registered. There must be a start and end date. Each state varies slightly on auction conditions, and auctioneers and agents must comply with each jurisdiction. In the current environment, Greg says, there are two different styles of auctions. a) A web-based auction There is a commencement date, and people can bid through till a final auction date. The auction starts from day one until a final bidding stage. If someone bids, as far as the regulator is concerned, thats a valid bid. Its registered, its recorded, and all parties can see it, but the final auction date is at some other set period of time. With a web-based auction, if it commences from day one, the moment it goes online, a reserve needs to be set. b) A more traditional auction, live-streamed. This type of auction is done in-rooms without a crowd. An application such as Zoom can be used. A start date will be set, and then the auction will continue until such time as the hammer falls. Online auctions may become part of the process of private treaty sales as well. Last year only fourteen per cent of the sales right across Australia were done, performed and transacted by auction. Greg says, "An auction is a process where we have legitimate competition for a commodity. Live streaming would be brilliant when you have two, possibly three people that had previously been on a private treaty wanting to buy the property. You could immediately start a form of auction." Online auctions give agents another tool to say, "Well, heres another way to get the best possible price." 1. Dos and donts with the registration process Every state has different requirements for the registration process. If a prospective purchaser wants to register to bid, either on a web-based or on a streamed auction, they still need to come forward and be identified by the agent or the auctioneer. A prospective purchaser cannot just send a copy of his or her drivers licence online; they must present themselves in person to confirm their identity. Different states have different requirements for identification; some prefer passports, drivers licences, or Medicare cards. As the auctioneer or the agent: Do everything in your power to minimise any potential criticism. Be transparent about bidding and pricing from the outset. Make sure all the paperwork is correct. Provide the auction conditions at the registration process. Provide written authority upfront. Provide full details of auction conditions. For example, the vendor reserves the right to bring the auction forward. If this is a condition, you need to make all parties who are prospective purchasers aware of the auction date being brought forward, to get the best possible price to your vendor. Prospective purchasers should be sent a text to advise if they wish to be emailed or texted the notification. They can then opt in to have a wish to be notified communication. Give them reasonable time, such as 24 hours and say, "This is when the auction will commence." Whether the auction is live-streamed or online, there will be no cooling-off period. If the auction is web-based and the property is sold prior to the final bidding time, then the purchaser would need to waive their cooling-off rights. Greg says, "With a web-based auction, if it commences from day one, the moment it goes online, a reserve needs to be set. You cannot commence an auction without a reserve being set prior to the auction. You cant set it halfway through the auction." Make sure bidders have a unique identifying code or card. A prospective purchaser must sign the authority so that they know that the auctioneer will bind them to the contract if theyre the successful bidder. They must be aware that the auctioneer will be signing the contract on their behalf, binding them to the sale if they are the successful bidder. Determine how the deposit will be paid. The purchaser must be aware that the auction will be recorded and that there will be bids by way of audio link or phone. 2. Once the auction commences The auctioneer must read the auction conditions out when she/he commences the streaming of the auction. With a timed auction, if its set for 4:00 pm Thursday, for example, you can commence bidding. Greg says, "Where the auction starts from day one until a final bidding stage, that is just an offer on the way through. Its just a slow burn auction, and as far as the regulators concerned, thats a valid bid. Its registered, its recorded, and all parties can see it, but the final auction date is at some other set period of time. It is not underbidding as long as its clearly defined in the terms and conditions that it is a bid." On the fall of the hammer, an auctioneer essentially has total authority to bind both the purchaser and the vendor to the contract. This authority is undisputed, and Courts have repeated time and time that they will not interfere with than auctioneers ability to bind the parties on the fall of the hammer. With an online or streamed auction, this would be immediately on conclusion of the auction A licenced auctioneer must sign off on the exchange of contracts. If a purchaser refuses to sign Whether online, web-based, streaming or the traditional on-site auction, if a purchaser refuses to sign and its okay for the vendor, the auctioneer will use their discretion. Obviously, with streamed and web-based auctions, the auctioneer will sign, because theyve been given the authority. Greg says, "If the purchaser doesnt proceed, then its a matter for the vendor to enforce the contract by way of specific performance or damages." 3. Conveyancing Technically, in all states, a purchaser should be able to walk into a property and say, "Ill buy it right here and now" and be able to exchange there and then on the spot. Greg says, "Some will have cooling-off periods. Some will be subject to finance. But, there is nothing preventing me from, in any state, from buying a property there and then on the spot if the contracts available and it always should be." In Western Australia, the agent prepares the contracts themselves. In New South Wales, you have to have a contract before you can show the house. Greg says, "I would warn any agent to be very careful exchanging a contract without special conditions, because there may be some aspect of the property that needs to be disclosed, and without that disclosure and the special conditions, the agent can become liable for misrepresenting that property." Its slowly being changed now. With the introduction of things like PEXA, the process is being far more streamlined. These are testing times, but this is also an opportunity to adapt to new and sometimes better ways of doing business.
