Frequently Asked Questions

  • What does a conveyancer do in a property transaction?

    A conveyancer manages the legal and administrative steps required to transfer property ownership from one party to another. This includes reviewing contracts, conducting title and property searches, identifying any restrictions or easements affecting the land and helping ensure all documentation complies with local property laws. Conveyancers also coordinate with lenders, real estate agents and government authorities to organise settlement and help ensure funds are distributed correctly. Their role is to support transaction proceeds legally, efficiently and without unnecessary risk to the buyer or seller.

  • How long does conveyancing usually take?

    The conveyancing process typically takes between 30 and 90 days, depending on the terms agreed upon in the contract of sale. In Australia, most property contracts include a settlement period of around 30 to 60 days, although this can vary based on negotiations between the buyer and seller. During this time, searches are completed, finance is finalised, documentation is prepared and settlement arrangements are organised. Delays can occur if there are issues with finance approvals, property searches or contract conditions, which is why careful coordination can be essential throughout the process.

  • What is the difference between a conveyancer and a solicitor?

    Both conveyancers and solicitors can assist with property transactions, but their areas of focus differ slightly. A licensed conveyancer specialises in property law and the conveyancing process, handling the preparation of contracts, title transfers and settlement coordination. A solicitor is a qualified lawyer who can provide broader legal services across many areas of law, including litigation and legal disputes. For most standard property transactions, a conveyancer provides specialised services in managing the settlement process and helping to ensure the transfer of ownership complies with state or territory legislation.
