Our Services

1

Pre-Purchase Review of Documentation

Once you're ready to proceed, we handle the entire legal process of the purchase. We’ll review your Contract of Sale and Section 32 Statement, conduct title and planning certificate searches, and liaise with your lender to prepare for settlement. We also prepare the Transfer of Land, calculate financial adjustments, and ensure the property is correctly transferred into your name.

2

Acting in a Purchase

Western Conveyancing offers a free pre-purchase review of your contract and Vendor’s Statement (Section 32). We’ll highlight any issues and ensure you’re fully informed before signing.

3

Settlement

The settlement date is set in your contract. On this day, we coordinate with the vendor’s conveyancer and your lender to finalise the transaction. Once settlement is complete, the property is officially yours.

5

Keys

The Selling Agent typically holds the keys. Once settlement is confirmed, the agent will be authorised to release them to you.

6

Utilities

We’ll notify the relevant authorities: Council, Water Authority, and Owners Corporation (if applicable) of the change in ownership. You’ll need to arrange for the connection of electricity, gas, internet, and other services.

4

Final Inspection

You’re entitled to inspect the property in the week leading up to settlement. This is your opportunity to make sure the property is in the same condition as it was on the day of sale. Contact the Selling Agent to arrange this inspection.

Fast, Secure Digital Settlements with PEXA

All settlements are now completed digitally using PEXA (Property Exchange Australia). This modern, secure system reduces paperwork and improves settlement speed and accuracy.
