In Perth, Western Australia, when somebody wants to

sell their property or they are looking for one to buy, it is

highly recommended that there is someone in between

who will assist both parties for some reasons. That

someone is what you call a conveyancer.

 

Conveyancing solicitors have a lot of responsibilities that they should

accomplish all throughout the process of buying and selling a property,

like a house, as they can make the entire process faster, easier and

more convenient for both buyer and seller. That is also why

property conveyancing in Perth is very popular.

What is a Conveyancer?

Before the conveyancer came into full view in real estate

transactions, conveyancing had to be done by a solicitor. However,

because of the monopoly of conveyancing done by solicitors, a

legislation in 1987 was passed to remove that monopoly and it’s

not only the solicitors who can do conveyancing but also the

conveyancer, and the professional conveyancing services scenario

has changed its face.

Today, a licensed conveyancer is being sought after to deal with

property in a very professional and legal manner. A licensed

conveyancer can act in behalf of buyers, sellers and even for lenders.

Thus, a conveyancer is defined as someone who will do the transfer of

legal title of property from one person to another individual.

It would be a wise move for both buyer and seller to have a

conveyancer in their midst to navigate the legal process of transferring

the legal title of a property from one to another because it can be quite

difficult for both parties to go through the legal process on their own.

During the whole process, a real estate agent will request from the

buyer and seller to provide him with contact details of the conveyancer

for the agreement of sales.

If you are buying the property, you should do a lot of research so

you will be able to find the best, most reliable and efficient of all

conveyancing solicitors near or within your area. 

How Can Conveyancing Solicitors Help?

Conveyancing solicitors can help ease out the process of transaction

for both sellers and buyers. As the seller, selling your house and

moving to another one can be a stressful experience. With a

conveyancing solicitor by your side, stress can be minimized.

Solicitors can do the paperwork for you and can go through the

unfamiliar processes of selling your property. Once you have

confirmed to the conveyancer that you wish to avail his services, he

will contact your within 24 hours.

He will provide you with the introductory letter and questionnaire for

you to answer after your conveyancing file was opened. If you are

selling through a real estate agent or broker, the conveyancer will

contact that person to get more contact details that the buyer would

like to review.

If you have already provided the copy of your deeds with your

conveyancer, he will prepare a draft contract package that he will

send to the buyer’s own solicitor or conveyancer. As you can see, you

don’t have to do anything. You just sit around and wait for your

conveyancing specialist to get in contact with you to obtain more

information.

Likewise, if you are the buyer, your conveyancing solicitors can really

help you a lot by preparing the property settlement contract for you.

The conveyancer is the one who knows the ins and outs of the legality

of buying and selling properties.

For sure, as the buyer, you don’t have any idea or knowledge on how

to do the process of buying a property. You may end up being

scammed if you do it all by yourself. You may have a real estate broker

at your disposal, but, the conveyancing solicitor does the job of

processing the property settlement objectively.

For both buyers and sellers, a conveyancer can help with

the following:

The conveyancer can aid you with

exchange of contracts.

He will be the one to proceed to

settlement and, finally, finishing the

transaction.

He can lay out the property report

with you along with the other party.

He will be able to conveniently

assist you with the exchange of

contracts.

He is capable of explaining the mortgage

documents, and;

He can conveniently organise the

settlement for smoother transaction.

It is really important that you find first the best, most reliable and

most efficient of all conveyancing solicitors. This will ensure you

smooth transaction of the property settlement and it can also save

you a lot of money, time and effort as well as save you from

headaches.
