Conveyancing
Buying property, whether it is your home or an investment, is often one of the most significant financial transactions you will make in your life.
Our team at Hanna Lawyers has many years of experience with property in the Illawarra, Southern Highlands and Greater Sydney region, having represented both buyers and sellers of property in thousands of property matters.
We have a reputation for being efficient. We know that timing is crucial and may be the difference between securing your dream home or losing it to another buyer who gets in first.
Depending on whether we are instructed to act for the seller (vendor) or the buyer (purchaser) we are able to assist by:
- Preparing the contract for sale
- Ordering a Building & Pest Report on a property
- Ordering a Strata Report on a property
- Reviewing the entire Contract including any special conditions
- Exchanging contracts
- Reviewing loan and mortgage documents
- Preparing settlement figures
- Attending settlement to ensure a smooth completion of your sale or purchase
The process of a typical sale of property is set out below:
Property for Sale
The vendor has a sale contract prepared before the property can be marketed
Exchange
The purchaser makes an offer that the vendor accepts. A deposit is received, and contracts are exchanged
Cooling Off Period
The vendor begins to prepare for discharge of any mortgage, while the purchaser ensures that their finances are unconditionally approved before cooling off expires
Preparing for settlement
While our team is preparing for settlement, the vendor begins to vacate the property, ready for the purchaser to conduct a final inspection.
Congratulations
Congratulations the sale/purchase is complete! Our team attends to settlement on your behalf – the vendor receives the balance of any funds owing for the property and the purchaser receives the property!
