Conveyancing is the process by which real estate is sold from one party to another. It begins with exchanging signed contracts and the buyer paying the seller a deposit, and ends with “settlement” some time later, where the seller transfers legal ownership of the property to the buyer in return for the balance of the purchase price. If you are buying or selling property in Victoria, we can assist you throughout the entire transaction.
