Conveyancing generally involves completing a series of checks, searches, scheduling meter readings, interrogating legal documents, liaising with relevant parties, interpreting property law and completing various calculations to ensure everything is ready for settlement. Our expert conveyancers will complete these tasks with your input and will update you as they go through our online platform, ensuring you’re always kept in the loop. 

Some of the tasks we might need to do for you include: 

• council and water rates searches
• planning and heritage searches
• title and encumbrance searches
• water meter readings
• road authority certificates
• land tax clearance certificates
• Environment Protection Authority (EPA) certificates
• owner’s corporation/body corporate/strata title certificates. 

If you have any questions about the tasks we’re carrying out, just ask! We’re happy to answer any questions you have to make sure you know what’s happening throughout your conveyancing transaction.

The fees you’ll pay for conveyancing will vary depending on the type of property and the complexity of the transaction. For example, a residential property will be a much simpler transaction than a commercial property. There are also additional administrative tasks that need to be taken care of for commercial properties, so the cost of conveyancing will generally be higher for these types of properties. 

At Settle Easy, we offer fixed-fee quotes that are tailored to your needs. We don’t hide anything in these quotes because we believe that transparency is a vital part of good customer service. 

And just to be clear, there will be other costs you’ll have to pay in addition to our fixed quotes. These are known as disbursements and are different for every single conveyancing transaction. 

As soon as we know what sort of property you need help with, our conveyancing team will be able to give you an idea of how much this part of your conveyancing will cost too – unlike other conveyancers, there are no hidden costs – ever.

Stamp Duty, often known as transfer duty, is a one-time tax that must be paid when you acquire property. The amount of stamp duty you’ll need to pay is determined by the market value of the property or the price you paid for it –whichever is greater.

The good news is that not everyone has to pay stamp duty. For example, if this is the first time you’ve bought property, you might be eligible for a stamp duty exemption. Our team of property lawyers will help you establish what government property concessions and exemptions you could be eligible for no matter what sort of buyer or seller you are.

For a quick and easy way to estimate stamp duty, why not use our Stamp Duty Calculator. Alternatively, chat with our team and we can answer any questions you have about stamp duty or conveyancing in general.
