What is a conveyancer?
A conveyancer is a licensed professional who provides information and advice while overseeing a settlement process. There is a high level of detail and documentation that goes into making sure a property is transferred correctly to the new owners.
When buying or selling, your conveyancer will handle the following stages:
• Review and negotiate contracts
• Prepare and lodge all legal documents
• Research the property and check the certificate of title
• Calculate and adjust rates
• Represent your interest with a vendor/purchaser
• Attend to settlement
• Register legal ownership
As with mortgage brokering, a great conveyancer can be the difference in the final outcome of a property and can significantly reduce your stress levels, so pick wisely.
