Is Your Property Being Resumed

Statutory authorities are required by law to pay compensation for land being resumed based on the market value of their property, but the law recognises that people having land resumed should be compensated properly and fairly for any land resumed. In most cases, costs of valuation fees, legal fees, Town Planning, etc. are also recoverable.

Herriots can advise you of your entitlements and provide advice about the legal ability of the acquiring authority to resume your land in any circumstance.
