A conveyancer handles all the necessary tasks that take place before the transfer of a legal title or an
encumbrance is complete. You need a conveyancer to:
- Look into any existing encumbrance or restriction the property may have.
- Work with the bank to handle any fees and taxes that need to be paid.
- Coordinate with the financier (if applicable) to meet all requirements for the purchaser and settle the mortgage and title for the vendor.
- Verify any special circumstances and ensure they are met.
- Prepare the legal documents necessary for the transfer.
- Carry out searches.
Searches are perhaps the most important and time-consuming part of conveyancing services. Through detailed
searches, we find information about the real property you want to sell or buy. This may include records of
contamination where indicated, other effects on the land such as flood risks or restrictions that may apply.
We also advise on the question of stamp duty in any possible exemptions or reductions that apply.
By hiring a conveyancer to handle all these tasks, you can save time and avoid delays by ensuring
everything is taken care of before completion.
