The key to any successful property conveyancing is the communication between the Conveyancer and Client, so it is important that you provide any information or pertenent facts which you believe maybe relevant to your property transfer. Early advice is excellent to avoid any delays in the conveyancing service.
General
It is important you:
A. Attend to signing any documents quickly as requested by your Conveyancer as soon as possible and return them as quickly. This is particularly important if the time frame for settlement is short or if you are going to be away. Please ensure you return the Appointment to Act together with your photo identification.
B. Attend to any special conditions noted on your Agreement for Sale and Purchase which need to be satisfied, if the responsibility is yours.
Discharge of Mortgage
If you have a mortgage security registered over your property transfer, we will contact your Lender and request them to prepare the necessary Discharge of Mortgage and provide our office with a payout figure of the loan. In cases where you are only partially paying out a loan, the Lender may require a valuation on the property to determine the amount the loan is to be reduced by.
Special conditions
If there are any special conditions in the Agreement for Sale and Purchase which you as the property owner are required to satisfy, please attend to satisfaction of the special conditions to avoid any delay in settlement. Please note if the property purchaser normally has 10 working days in which to check the Certificate of Title and encumbrances even if your Agreement for Sale and Purchase is considered unconditional.
