Conveyancing is the legal work involved in preparing and perusing the sales contract, mortgage and other related documents when purchasing a home.
When buying a home, it is important to ensure that your contract protects you from any problems that a proper building and pest inspection might discover.
Another problem that often occurs is when property owners carry out their own renovations with no permit and attempt to sell the property with no regard to the proper building standards (also affecting the value of the property).
This is illegal.
When buying or selling a property, many aspects need to be considered, such as:
- Building and pest inspections
- Finance
- Payment of the deposit
- Payment of stamp duties and concessions available to you
- Preparation and examination of the mortgage agreement
- Capital gains
It is important to consult a lawyer to discuss the steps of conveyancing.
Our solicitors and conveyancers are experienced in these aspects of property transactions and can assist you to ensure that you are aware of any issues prior to settlement.
