AU Australia property term

Crown Lease

Western Australia

Plain-English definition

A leasehold right granted over Crown land for a stated term, purpose and set of conditions.

Why this matters to a foreign buyer

A Crown lease is not freehold ownership. Review the remaining term, rent, permitted use, transfer consent, improvement obligations and termination provisions.
