Conveyancing

Conveyancing is the transfer of property from one person to another. A typical conveyancing transaction has two major stages often referred to as exchange of contracts and completion.

Buying and selling property is often one of the biggest decisions you will make in life – that is why it is so important to receive professional legal advice from experienced solicitors before you do so.

Our team of solicitors and conveyancers are highly skilled in residential and commercial property transactions. We will provide you with clear, practical and cost effective advice.

Our objective is to provide you with confidence and peace of mind when you decide to buy or sell a property.

Selling a property

Our conveyancing team will endeavour to make the sale of your property a stress free process.

It is a legal requirement that a contract for marketing purposes be prepared and made available to potential purchasers prior to your property being advertised for sale.  Our team will order the required documents for inclusion in the contract and then prepare the contract to be forwarded to your nominated listing agent.

Once you find a purchaser for your property, we then navigate you through every stage to settlement, including:

  • assisting with pre-exchange negotiations;
  • exchanging contracts (this is when the contract becomes legally binding on both parties);
  • discharge of any mortgage on the property;
  • attending to adjustments for rates, water and strata levies where applicable; and
  • facilitating settlement.

Our conveyancing team have the knowledge and experience to ensure your sale is settled as smoothly as possible.

Our expertise extends to the following additional types of conveyancing transactions:

Buying and selling off the plan;
Transfers of land between family members;
Strata and Community titling – including by-laws;
Mortgages and leasing;
Intergenerational transfers; and
Updating title particulars such as change of name.
