Sydney property purchase sell Conveyancing Process
Buying
At Oakwise Solicitors, we realise you might be buying a house or property for the first time and you’re unsure what to expect from the conveyancing process. 
What you should know is that you have already done the hard work – just by finding the house or property of your dreams – or deciding to make a new move elsewhere. You should also know that there are three stages to buying a house or property – and that Oakwise Solicitors takes care of it all!
If you are experienced in property matters, you will appreciate the efficiency and regular updates generated from our systems.
Before exchange
The land or house buying process begins well before contracts are exchanged. At this stage Oakwise Solicitors will:
- Review your contract and provide advice regarding it
- Liaise with the real estate agent
- Negotiate with your seller’s conveyancer, to ensure your requirements are met, and
- Attend to the exchange
After exchange and before settlement
Once contracts are exchanged, you’re well on your way. Next, Oakwise Solicitors will:
- Confirm with you that your exchange has taken place
- Advise you when settlement is due
- Liaise with the seller’s conveyancer regarding settlement
- Organise any property title search that you may desire
- Liaise with your lender about your loan
- Prepare all of the necessary documents to make sure settlement progresses smoothly, and
- Your Account Manager (go getter) will keep you updated and report to you either by phone, or email
Settlement
- Prepare & confirm settlement figures
- Liaise with you regarding these figures
- Organise & attend Settlement
- Advise you that the property is now yours and you can collect the keys
What do you need to do?
Not much! Oakwise Solicitors makes property conveyancing hassle free. All you need to do is:
- Inspect the property
- Pay your deposit
- Sign the Contract and Transfer documents
- Give us instructions from time to time
- Provide us with cheques for settlement, if necessary
- Arrange your moving day, and
- Organise the connection of electricity, telephone, gas and other services, after settlement and disconnection at your old place if applicable

Transferring
A Transfer is usually done between friends or relatives who trust each other. You will need a valuation. The Office of State Revenue (OSR) needs to believe you
have transferred the property at the correct market value, so that it is not being ‘ripped off’ unpaid stamp duty. We can help you find a valuer. We can do the transfer too.
Call us on 9639 8173 for us to help you with your transfer today.
Refinancing
You probably do not need a lawyer or a conveyancer to help you with a refinance, unless the title is changing or partly changing at the same time. That will probably then result in a transfer – see above.
However, if you want us to check what is going on from a legal perspective, we will review the refinance, to allay your fears.
