Conveyancing is the legal process of transferring property ownership from a seller to a buyer. It involves several critical steps that ensure the transaction is lawful, clear of title issues, and properly registered. Whether you’re buying your first home, selling an investment property, or refinancing, understanding the conveyancing process helps protect your rights. It also safeguards your investment.
The lawyer reviews the Contract of Purchase and Sale and investigates the property title for liens, easements, and other encumbrances.
The buyer’s lawyer prepares transfer documents, mortgage forms, and property tax certificates. The seller’s lawyer prepares the seller’s documents and payout statements.
All parties sign the required legal documents. Identification and compliance with Land Title Office requirements are verified.
The buyer’s funds are received and held in trust, ensuring the seller receives payment upon registration of the transfer.
Once all conditions are met, the property is legally transferred, and the new ownership is registered.
Clients receive a final report package summarizing the transaction, including copies of all registered documents.
