Hall & Wilcox shows property strength with $170m Aventus transaction
Leading independent business law firm Hall & Wilcox has once again demonstrated its property sector credentials by advising Aventus Property Group (formerly BBRC Property) in a major transaction across three states.
Hall & Wilcox’s property team, led by Partner Natalie Bannister and including Special Counsel Richard Skopal, worked with Aventus Property Fund in relation to the transaction of three bulky goods centres in Victoria, New South Wales and Queensland.
