Buying Property
contract review through to settlement

As all property transactions are unique, our professional fee differs accordingly. Once we know what is required for your conveyancing, we can advise you the professional fee and let you know about any other disbursements that you can expect along the way.

Step 1: Contract Review

As soon as you find a property that you’re interested in, ask for an electronic copy of the contract from the agent and we’ll review it. 

We’ll let you know if there are any clauses in the contract that need amending or anything else that you should be aware of before placing an offer.

If you decide to proceed, we can assist with obtaining any inspections or searches, negotiations with the Vendor’s Conveyancer on any contract amendments, and get you ready to exchange.

Step 2: Exchange of Contracts

Once your offer is accepted, we can proceed to the exchange of contracts. At this stage, a final contract will be produced for signing. You’ll be required to pay the deposit (typically 10%) and contracts will be dated.

This is the time that contracts become binding and settlement preparations can begin.

Step 3: Settlement

Once contracts have been exchanged, we’ll continue to guide you through to settlement. We’ll liaise with the real estate agent, vendor’s conveyancer & your lender to make the necessary arrangements.

Settlement will typically occur around 6 weeks after exchange. This is the day the remaining funds are paid, and possession of the property is provided to you.

After settlement, we’ll obtain and provide you with a title search to confirm you are the registered owner of the property.
