Conveyancing is the legal process of transferring ownership of property from one party to another.
The typical conveyancing process takes between 30 to 60 days, depending on the terms of the contract and the complexity of the transaction. We work to ensure the process stays on track and that settlement occurs smoothly and on time.
While some choose to handle conveyancing themselves, it’s highly recommended to use a lawyer or conveyancer. Legal professionals ensure that all aspects of the contract are properly handled, avoiding costly mistakes and ensuring your rights are protected.
Conveyancing searches involve checking the property for any legal issues, such as council rates, zoning restrictions, or easements. These searches are crucial to identify any potential risks that could affect the property's value or your ability to use it as intended.
On settlement day, your conveyancer ensures that all funds are transferred, and the title is legally transferred to your name. We handle the exchange of documents between the buyer, seller, and financial institutions to ensure the process is seamless.
Stamp duty is a government tax on property transactions. It is generally payable by the buyer on the settlement date.
After signing, making changes to the contract can be challenging and may require agreement from both parties.
If issues arise, such as undisclosed encumbrances or legal disputes, we work to resolve them promptly. Our team will negotiate with the seller and advise you on the best course of action to protect your interests and ensure a fair outcome.
