Conveyancing lawyers who check the contract first
A contract just landed and someone wants it signed by a deadline. We check what you're agreeing to before you sign, then manage it through to settlement.
Sound familiar?
We read every clause and explain in plain English exactly what you're agreeing to.
We line up both contracts so settlement dates match and you're not left without a home.
We flag anything unusual, like a special condition that favours the seller, before you sign.
We manage the paperwork, the bank and the other side so nothing gets missed.
What we handle
Review the contract before you sign
A property contract can include special conditions that favour the seller, so it's worth checking before you're locked in.
Check the title and any encumbrances
An encumbrance on the title, like an easement or covenant, can affect what you're actually allowed to do with the property.
Prepare and lodge settlement documents
Settlement paperwork has to be accurate and lodged correctly, or the transfer of ownership itself can be delayed.
Liaise with your bank and the other side
Settlement involves several parties working to the same deadline, so someone needs to keep everyone actually coordinated.
Handle adjustments for rates and levies
Rates and levies get split between buyer and seller at settlement, and getting the calculation wrong costs someone money.
Attend or manage settlement on your behalf
Settlement is when title and money actually change hands, so having it managed properly avoids last minute surprises.
What happens when you get in touch
Email or upload it and we'll review it, usually within one (1) business day.
You get a plain English rundown of anything unusual before you're locked into signing.
Once you're comfortable proceeding, we manage searches, paperwork and settlement so you don't have to.
Common questions
How much does conveyancing cost?
It depends on the property and on whether it's a purchase or a sale. Get in touch and we'll give you a clear quote before any work starts.
Do I need a conveyancer or a lawyer?
A lawyer can do everything a conveyancer does, plus advise you if a legal issue comes up mid transaction. That matters most when a contract is unusual or something goes wrong.
When should I get in touch?
Ideally before you sign anything. Once we've reviewed the contract, we can flag issues while there's still time to negotiate them.
What if I've already signed the contract?
Get in touch anyway. There may still be conditions, deadlines or a cooling off period we can act on, and we'll tell you honestly what your options are.
Not sure if you have a problem worth acting on?
Send us your contract and we'll tell you exactly what it means before you sign anything.
No cost, no obligation.
