Frequently Asked Questions


  • What does a conveyancer or property lawyer do during a property transaction?

    A conveyancer or property lawyer manages the legal aspects involved in buying, selling or transferring property. Their role includes reviewing the contract of sale, conducting property searches and ensuring all legal requirements are satisfied before settlement takes place. They also communicate with the other party’s legal representatives and relevant authorities to keep the transaction progressing smoothly.


    Throughout the process, a lawyer can explain important terms in the contract, identify potential risks and make sure deadlines are met. Their involvement helps ensure documents are correctly prepared and lodged, reducing the likelihood of delays or legal issues during the transfer of ownership.

  • What happens during the settlement process?

    Settlement is the final stage of a property transaction where ownership of the property is formally transferred from the seller to the buyer. During this stage, legal documents are completed and verified, and the purchase funds are transferred between the parties through their financial institutions.


    Once settlement is finalised, the title of the property is updated with the relevant land registry authority to reflect the new owner. Your legal representative coordinates these steps and confirms that all financial adjustments, legal paperwork and registration requirements are properly completed.

  • Do I need legal advice before signing a contract to buy property?

    Obtaining legal advice before signing a property contract is strongly recommended. A lawyer can review the document carefully to ensure the terms are fair, legally enforceable and clearly understood before you commit to the purchase.


    Legal advice can also help identify conditions within the contract that may affect your rights or obligations, such as cooling off periods, settlement dates or special conditions. Having the contract reviewed before signing can help prevent unexpected issues later in the transaction.

  • Can property be transferred between family members?

    Yes, property can be transferred between family members for a variety of reasons, including estate planning, relationship settlements, gifting property or restructuring family assets. While these transfers may seem straightforward, they still involve legal and financial considerations that must be handled correctly.


    A solicitor can help prepare the required documentation, explain any legal implications and ensure the transfer complies with relevant regulations. Seeking legal advice also helps ensure the transfer is properly recorded and completed through the appropriate land title authority.
