Frequently Asked Questions
What does a conveyancer do when buying a property?
A conveyancer helps you understand and manage the legal side of a property purchase. This includes reviewing the contract of sale, advising on clauses, checking council and zoning information and coordinating with your bank and the seller's legal team.
They also handle property searches, explain stamp duty and ensure that all conditions are met before settlement.
Their job is to keep your purchase on track, help avoid costly mistakes and make sure the legal transfer of ownership is done correctly.
How long does settlement usually take in NSW?
In New South Wales, the standard settlement period is 42 days (six weeks) from the date of contract exchange. However, this can vary depending on what's agreed between buyer and seller.
Some settlements may be shorter or longer if both parties agree in writing. Your conveyancer will help manage this timeline, ensure all conditions are met before settlement and communicate with banks, agents and the other party’s solicitor to keep everything running smoothly.
What should I look out for in a contract of sale?
Key things to look out for include the settlement period, inclusions and exclusions, zoning issues, special conditions, and penalties for delays.
The contract should also contain a copy of the property title, a zoning certificate and a drainage diagram. It's important to understand any conditions that may affect your ability to pull out of the contract or negotiate terms.
A conveyancer can break this down and help negotiate changes before you sign.
Do I need a conveyancer if I’m selling a property?
Yes, it’s a legal requirement in NSW to have a contract of sale prepared before you list your property for sale. A conveyancer handles this and ensures everything is compliant and ready for prospective buyers.
They’ll also help manage the legal process once your property is under contract—responding to buyer questions, liaising with the agent and handling settlement on your behalf.
This ensures your sale runs smoothly and you're protected legally throughout the process.
What documents do I need to provide for conveyancing?
If you’re selling, you’ll need your property title deed, identification, and details of any mortgage or easements. Buyers generally need ID, loan approval documents, and insurance details. We’ll let you know exactly what’s required for your situation.
How early should I engage a conveyancer?
Ideally, you should contact a conveyancer as soon as you’re thinking of buying or selling. This gives us time to review documents, identify any issues early, and ensure a smoother, faster settlement process.
What are disbursements and how are they charged?
Disbursements are third-party costs paid during the conveyancing process, such as title searches, council certificates, and stamp duty. We’ll provide a detailed breakdown upfront, so you always know where your money is going.
