Brooke acts for developers, investors and private clients on property transactions and development structuring, with integrated advice on tax, stamp duty and ownership vehicles.
Biography
Brooke acts for developers, institutional and private investors, property funds and family offices on transactions across commercial, residential and mixed-use asset classes. Her practice spans both real estate and tax, providing integrated advice on the legal and fiscal dimensions of property transactions.
Brooke advises on property acquisitions, disposals, development structuring, joint ventures and leasing arrangements. Her tax practice covers stamp duty, GST and land tax exposure in property transactions, ownership vehicle structuring and tax-efficient transaction frameworks across the property lifecycle.
Brooke manages transactions that require close coordination between property and tax advice, including structuring ownership vehicles for portfolio acquisitions, advising on duty and GST exposure in development projects and negotiating complex joint venture arrangements with embedded tax considerations.
Brooke is cross-listed in both the Real Estate and Tax practice groups, reflecting a practice that spans both disciplines. Her ability to provide coordinated property and tax advice in a single engagement reduces friction for clients managing capital-intensive transactions with material fiscal exposure.
