Conveyancing refers to everything that needs to be checked, searched, signed, and certified in order to sell your property. Our conveyancing team is experienced, reliable, and backed up by a team of lawyers, which means you are in good hands, no matter how complicated things get. Some of the key ways our team can help you is with the contract, searches and settlement.
Contract
When selling a property, you need a contract that sets out exactly what’s for sale and at what price. All your potential buyers will have access to the contract so it’s important to get it right. Although nowadays the contract of sale is commonly prepared by your real estate agent, our team can also help you draft and prepare a suitable contract. A contract for sale makes it clear what is and isn’t included (things like the fridge, dishwasher, curtains, or chandelier), and it’s what makes sure the sale happens exactly how you want it to.
Searches
To sell your property you’ll first need to get all the information about it. Just like when selling a car, a buyer will want to know the year the car was made, the odometer reading, and whether its registered. To sell a house you need the title deed, adjustments to outgoings which includes things such as land tax, rates and so much more. To get all this information ‘searches’ must be completed with the local council and authorities. Our team will do this for you so can be confident everything is in order to make the sale.
Settlement
Settlement is where everything comes together. There’s a lot of paperwork to file, money changing hands, and several people who need to be kept in the loop – such as real estate agent, the seller’s conveyancer, insurers and the banks. One of our team members will be your representative to all these different people. They’ll make sure all the right documents are signed by you and that everything is filed correctly to the right government department.
To summarise, conveyancing isn’t just something that happens in the background when you buy a property, it’s what makes buying a property possible! From a contract review, to searches, and reaching settlement – conveyancing is all the essential behind-the-scenes work. Which is why you need the right people by your side to complete the process correctly and legally. Conveyancing.com.au is here to guide you through that vital work and answer any questions you may have. We’re here to help and make the process as easy as possible.
