Property Mediation

Mediation is a confidential, facilitative and voluntary process in which parties to a dispute attempt to reach a mutually acceptable agreement to resolve the dispute, with the assistance of a mediator. It is a process in which an independent, neutral Mediator assists two or more disputing parties in resolving their dispute in a shared, consensual manner.

Either party in a dispute may initiate and request mediation services, provided both parties have mutually and voluntarily agreed to pursue dispute resolution.

 

The property market is characterised by a considerably high conflict potential. While a number of factors contribute to conflicts, some disputes are related to conflicts between:

 

  • Buyer & Seller
  • Investor and Financing Partner
  • Landlord & Tenant
  • Neighbouring Dwellings
  • Family Estates
  • Agriculture
  • Property Owner & Service Providers
  • Developers & Authorities
  • Valuations
 

Conflicts in the real estate sector can rapidly engender obstinate positioning on both sides. A focus on purely legal aspects of a conflict typically excludes alternative solutions. Such a focus may lead to possibly long-term and costly litigation with an open end. 

 

The selection of a suitable mediator is key to any conflict resolution. Property disputes can be complex and it is important to have a skilled and knowledgeable mediator. Having extensive property market experience is a benefit to the parties in a dispute.

 

Since real estate is a reputation-sensitive sector that places great emphasis on long-term partnerships, mediation can create significant value in dispute situations.
