Expert Conveyancing in Newcastle

In New South Wales, there is a 5-day "cooling off" period for residential contracts. During this time, the buyer may reconsider the purchase and have the option to cancel the contract, in which case the purchaser may be legally bound to pay 0.25% of the purchasing price to the seller. Not all contracts have a cooling off period however, such as when the property is purchased at auction, or if the purchaser speeds up the process or if the purchaser speeds up the process we suggest that you contact or consult someone from our office prior to signing any contracts to enable us to explain your rights and obligations.

Frequently Asked Questions 

  • What is conveyancing and why do I need a professional?

    Conveyancing refers to the legal process of transferring property ownership from one person to another. This process can involve various steps, including preparing legal documents, conducting property searches and complying with all legal requirements. Engaging a solicitor in Newcastle can help streamline this process. They can manage the paperwork, liaise with relevant parties and complete the legal transfer smoothly.

  • How long does the conveyancing process take?

    The duration of the conveyancing process can vary depending on several factors, such as the complexity of the transaction, the responsiveness of the parties involved and any issues that may arise during the process. Conveyancing may take four to six weeks from the signing of the contract to settlement. However, this timeline may be shorter or longer based on individual circumstances. Regular communication with your solicitor can provide updates on the progress of your transaction.

  • What is the difference between a conveyancer and a solicitor?

    A conveyancer is someone to deal with property transactions. They can manage the legal aspects of buying and selling property. A solicitor is a legal practitioner who can provide the service of a conveyancer and offer a broader range of legal services. While both can assist with property transactions, solicitors might be more suitable for complex legal matters. When considering conveyancing in Newcastle, the choice between a conveyancer and a solicitor may depend on the nature of your transaction and your specific needs.

  • Do I need a solicitor / conveyancer if I am buying at auction?

    Yes, it is often advisable to engage a solicitor / conveyancer if you are buying a property at auction. Purchasing at auction involves a binding contract upon the fall of the hammer, leaving little room for due diligence after the purchase. Conveyancing solicitors in Newcastle can review the contract and property details before the auction to help identify any potential issues or unfavourable terms. This preparation can help you make an informed decision and potentially avoid complications.

  • What should I do if there are issues with the property after settlement?

    If issues with the property arise after settlement, consider contacting your conveyancer or property lawyer. They can advise you on potential courses of action and help you understand your legal rights and obligations. Depending on the nature of the issue, there may be options for resolving the problem through negotiation with the seller or exploring remedies available under the contract or relevant laws.

  • Can you help with loan and mortgage documents?

    Yes, we can assist you with loan and mortgage documents. Our team can review the terms and conditions of your loan, check that all documents are correctly completed and liaise with your lender to help facilitate the transaction. Our Newcastle conveyancing services aim to simplify the property transfer process, potentially making the financial aspects of your property purchase more seamless.
