Buying Property
Buying a property is an exciting milestone, but it is also one of the largest financial commitments many people will make. Understanding the conveyancing process and your obligations before signing a Contract of Sale can help you move forward with confidence.
Our office provides clear guidance and personal service throughout your purchase, from reviewing the contract through to settlement.
Before You Sign a Contract
The Contract of Sale is a legally binding document. Before signing, we recommend obtaining advice, so you
understand the terms, conditions and important requirements of your purchase.
We can assist by:
Reviewing the Contract of Sale and Section 32 Vendor Statement
Explaining important terms and conditions
Identifying key dates and obligations
Answering questions about the purchase before you commit
After You Sign the Contract
Once the Contract of Sale has been signed by all parties, the agreement becomes legally binding and important contractual timeframes begin. Our office then manages the conveyancing process through to settlement.
We manage the steps required to progress your purchase, including:
Reviewing contract requirements
Preparing necessary documentation
Liaising with your lender (if applicable)
Communicating with the seller's conveyancer
Preparing for settlement
Preparing for Settlement
Before settlement, there are a number of important steps that must be completed to ensure your
purchase is ready to proceed.
We attend to matters including:
Reviewing settlement figures and adjustments
Confirming requirements with your lender
Preparing settlement documentation
Completing settlement through PEXA
Settlement
Settlement is the final stage of your purchase.
Settlement is completed electronically through PEXA, at which time:
The balance of the purchase funds is paid
Ownership transfers into your name
