BUYING A PROPERTY

Buying a property can be a stressful time and there can also be confusion due to the legal jargon that requires understanding.

An experienced conveyancer will help you avoid miscommunication and confusion. And, best of all, could save you thousands of dollars in solicitor’s fees.


Below is a simplified version of the process involved when buying property.

Step 1

Find Your Property

Look for properties that meet your requirements and are within your price range.

Step 2

Contact Key2 Conveyancing

Once you have decided on a property, give us a call as tell us your plans.
We negotiate the terms of the contract with the seller’s conveyancer and will instruct you about a pre-purchase inspection report that you might need prior to buying the property. We then arrange these report for you.
We will advise you in relation to the contract and negotiate any amendments so that the contract to purchase is on terms specific to your requirements.

Step 3

Payment of Deposit and Exchange of Contracts

You sign the contract; pay the deposit and we exchange contracts. This ensures that the property is secured or you, subject to any cooling off period.

At this stage, we will help you secure your property by assisting in the exchanging of contracts. The cooling off period is only available for the purchase of residential property.

The vendor does not have a cooling-off period. There is no cooling- off period when a property is purchased at auction.

Step 4

Pre-settlement

We will conduct government and statutory searches to make sure that they have no interest in the property. We prepare the documents needed for the transfer. This stage also involves various other steps including stamp the transfer, preparation of settlement figures, direction of settlement cheques and schedule the settlement time and location.

Step 5

Settlement

We attend and effect the settlement at the designated time and location. You pay the balance owed and then will receive the title to the property.

Step 6

Post-settlement

In most cases, it's at this stage where the keys to the property are available for collection - usually from the office of the selling agent.

We will notify the authorities of the change of ownership of the property so all future documentation, for example council rate and strata title levies, are forwarded to you in future.
