Owen Kiely
Partner, Sydney
I have nearly two decades of experience in the property industry, having commenced my career at a large Australian developer where I worked in the sales team on a number of mixed used development projects in NSW. This experience means that I am uniquely placed to understand the business drivers of my clients and allows me to bring a well-rounded and commercial perspective to my role.

As a project conveyancing specialist with extensive experience running a large conveyancing practice, I have established deep and longstanding relationships with my clients I am passionate about the living sector, spanning all asset classes including mixed use developments, communities, apartments and aged care and retirement villages. I am motivated by working with a dedicated and talented national team who are committed to delivering an efficient and consistent best practice service to all of our clients.

I see myself, and my team, as part of our client's sales process and enjoy working as part of one team in pursuit of shared goals. To that end, I work closely with developers, project real estate agents and village operators to find best practice efficiencies (legal, technological and process improvements) whilst ensuring that my team and I are at all times approachable and available having regard to the important role we each play in the customer's experience and overall outcome.

In delivering this consistent service I am fortunate to be part of one of the largest real estate teams in Australia allowing me to offer a scalable team that, with the appropriate technology, is best placed to manage the peaks and troughs of volume transactions in NSW and nationally.

Beyond my practice I also contribute to the industry as a member of the NSW Law Society Property Law Committee and deliver the Property Council of Australia's Navigating the Retirement Villages Act NSW course.
