THE COMPLETE CONVEYANCING PROCESS: STEP BY STEP

 

 

STAGE 1: PRE-CONTRACT REVIEW AND ADVICE

 

Once you decide to make an offer we perform a detailed review of the proposed contract of sale. The review process involves checking the vendor's statement (Section 32 in Victoria or Contract for Sale in NSW and similar documents elsewhere) to identify unusual clauses and provide advice on special conditions which could impact your purchase.

 

We create a detailed due diligence checklist specific to your property and its location which confirms all required searches and inquiries before you finalize your purchase decision.

 

Our team offers advice on contract provisions alongside cooling-off periods and special conditions that need modification to safeguard your interests.

 

 

STAGE 2: POST- CONTRACT COMPREHENSIVE SEARCHES

 

After the exchange of contracts we begin detailed property searches and investigations right away.

 

Our team performs detailed title searches with the appropriate state land registry such as the Land Registry Services in NSW and Land Use Victoria among others. Title searches enable us to confirm property ownership and identify any existing encumbrances and usage restrictions.

 

Our team gathers planning certificates and zoning information from local councils to make sure the property's current and future use matches your intentions. Varying planning laws between Australian states and territories make this process particularly important.

 

Our Building and Compliance Searches include investigations of building approvals and compliance certificates as well as any existing building orders and notices which might influence your property ownership or development plans.

 

When applicable we perform environmental searches to detect contamination problems as well as flood risks or environmental restrictions that could affect property value or usage.

Our team works directly with your lender to prepare correct mortgage documentation while coordinating with bank officials to facilitate a smooth settlement process.

 

Our team performs calculations for rate adjustments and taxes and when necessary body corporate fees along with other expenses to deliver precise financial settlements.

 

We verify appropriate insurance coverage from settlement date and work with insurance providers to maintain seamless coverage transitions.

 

 

STAGE 4: PRE-SETTLEMENT PREPARATION

 

We generate complete settlement statements which detail all transaction financial elements such as purchase price adjustments, government charges and our professional fees.

 

The preparation of all essential transfer documents follows state-specific guidelines to incorporate land and mortgage paperwork and necessary statutory declarations

 

We manage the final property inspections while confirming that all pre-settlement requirements outlined in the contract have been met.

 

 

STAGE 5: ELECTRONIC SETTLEMENT (PEXA)

 

We handle the electronic settlement process throughout Australia as authorized subscribers of PEXA. Our digital platform combines speed and efficiency in settlement transactions with top-level security standards.

 

Our settlement day coordination involves working with vendors, financial institutions and government agencies to facilitate transaction completion.

STAGE 6: POST- SETTLEMENT SERVICES

We make certain that your new title gets registered promptly with the appropriate state land registry while overseeing the process until it's fully completed.

You get all necessary paperwork such as your title certificate along with insurance papers and detailed settlement records for your files.
