FAQ
Common Questions About Melbourne Conveyancing
At Westgate Conveyancing, we offer fixed-fee conveyancing services for both buyers and sellers across Melbourne. This means you’ll receive a clear, upfront quote with no hidden charges, allowing you to budget effectively for your property transaction. The exact fee can vary slightly based on the complexity of the property and specific searches required, but we ensure full transparency from the outset.
In Victoria, both licensed conveyancers and solicitors can handle property transactions. The main difference is that solicitors are qualified lawyers who can also provide broader legal advice and represent you in court for complex legal disputes, whereas conveyancers specialise exclusively in property transfers. For standard property transactions, a conveyancer is typically more cost-effective and equally expert in this specific field.
The duration of conveyancing in Melbourne typically aligns with the settlement period agreed upon in the contract of sale. This is commonly 30, 60, or 90 days from the contract date. However, factors like finance approval, property inspections, and specific conditions can influence the timeline. Our team works diligently to ensure your settlement proceeds as efficiently as possible.
Absolutely. Buying off the plan in Melbourne involves unique complexities, including reviewing lengthy contracts, understanding sunset clauses, and navigating potential changes during construction. A specialised conveyancer is crucial to protect your interests, explain the risks, and ensure the contract terms are favourable and compliant with Victorian regulations.
On settlement day in Victoria, your conveyancer coordinates with all parties (banks, seller’s representative) to facilitate the electronic exchange of funds and legal documents. The balance of the purchase price is paid, and the title is transferred to the buyer. Once settlement is confirmed, you can collect the keys from the real estate agent and officially take possession of your new property.
