Our Conveyancing Services for Buyers
Reliable, Experienced, Committed
When buying a property, conveyancing is the legal process of transferring ownership from the seller to the buyer.
We ensures that all legal, financial, and administrative tasks are properly managed.
Here is an overview of key property conveyancing services involved in purchasing a property:
1.
CONTRACT REVIEW
The Conveyancer reviews the Contract of Sale and other legal documents to ensure there are no hidden clauses or conditions that could impact you negatively. They ensure you understand your rights and obligations before you sign.
2.
SEARCHES & INQUIRIES
Conveyancers conduct searches on the property to uncover any issues such as:
- Title ownership: Verifying the seller is the legal owner.
- Easements or encumbrances: Checking if there are restrictions or third-party rights affecting the property.
- Council rates, zoning, and planning permits: Ensuring the property complies with all local regulations.
3.
FINANCIAL ARRANGEMENTS
Your Conveyancer ensures all financial matters related to the purchase are in order, including:
- Organizing the deposit payment.
- Calculating any adjustments for council rates or utilities.
- Liaising with your lender (if you're using a mortgage) to ensure your loan funds are available for settlement
4.
PREPARATION OF LEGAL DOCUMENTS
Conveyancers prepare and lodge important documents, such as:
- Transfer of Title: Ensuring that the title to the property is properly transferred to your name.
- Stamp duty paperwork: Managing the calculation and payment of stamp duty (a government tax on property transactions).
- Verification of identity: Confirming your identity to meet legal requirements.
5.
LIASING WITH STAKEHOLDER
The conveyancer will communicate with all parties involved in the transaction, such as:
- The seller's conveyancer or solicitor.
- Real estate agents.
- Banks or mortgage brokers.
- Relevant government authorities.
6.
SETTLEMENT COORDINATION
The Conveyancer oversees the settlement process, which includes:
- Ensuring that all necessary payments (including the purchase price and other fees) are made.
- Coordinating the transfer of funds from your bank or mortgage provider to the seller.
- Lodging documents with the relevant land titles office to officially transfer ownership to you.
- Finalizing any adjustments for council rates, water, or utility charges.
7.
POST-SETTLEMENT TASKS
After settlement, the Conveyancer will:
