What is conveyancing?
It may seem like a silly question to some but unless you have been directly involved in either the purchase or sale of a property, conveyancing may be something of a mystery.
Buying or selling a home generates paperwork – a lot of it!
Conveyancers (or solicitors) are legal professionals who are responsible for effecting the transfer of title between a buyer and seller.
What does this mean?
They draw up the contracts, review them and fulfil the legal requirements of transferring property.
Why do I need a conveyancer?
Like all aspects of the law, property transfers can be complicated. And mistakes or omissions can be costly.
It is worth ensuring that all of your expectations are covered in the contract, or at least queried.
Conveyancers deal with property transfers every day – it is their specific area of expertise.
And like most professions, with experience comes insight. Conveyancers know what to look out for and how to protect your interest under law.
How do I find a conveyancer?
For practical reasons, many people will work with a local conveyancer.
However, in today’s digital age you can work with any conveyancer that is licensed in the state you are wishing to buy in, irrespective of where you or they may be based.
Be aware that most states have their own regulations relating to property transfers so ideally, you should choose a conveyancer who is located within the same state or territory as the property.
