What is the difference between a conveyancer and a property lawyer?
A conveyancer handles the standard transfer process, while a property lawyer can also advise on legal complications such as disputes, unusual contract terms or trust and company purchases. For a straightforward sale either may be suitable.
Should I get the contract reviewed before I sign?
Yes. Having a lawyer review the contract of sale before you sign is one of the best ways to avoid expensive surprises, as they can flag unfavourable conditions, hidden costs and issues with the property.
How much does conveyancing cost?
Professional fees for a standard residential conveyance are commonly charged as a fixed fee, separate from government costs such as stamp duty and search fees. Ask for an itemised quote covering both.
