Settlement day is when ownership of the property officially transfers to you. While it can feel like a big moment, you do not need to attend — your conveyancer and lender handle everything on your behalf.
In the days leading up to settlement, we verify that all conditions have been met, coordinate with the seller's conveyancer and your bank, and ensure all financial adjustments for rates and levies are accurately calculated.
On the day itself, funds are exchanged electronically through PEXA, title documents are transferred, and once everything is confirmed, we notify you that it is complete. Your estate agent will then release the keys so you can step into your new home with confidence.

Frequently Asked Questions
We conduct a comprehensive suite of searches including title searches, plan of subdivision, council property certificates, water authority certificates, and planning overlay checks. These searches reveal critical information about the property such as outstanding rates, planned roadworks, easements, or building restrictions that could affect your purchase.
At auction, the contract becomes binding when the hammer falls with no cooling-off period. In a private sale, you typically have three clear business days to cool off after signing. We strongly recommend having your contract reviewed before auction day so you are fully informed before bidding.
A standard property purchase in Victoria takes 30 to 90 days from signing the contract to settlement, depending on the terms agreed. We keep you informed at every stage and work to ensure there are no delays on our end.
Yes. Once you sign a contract you have an insurable interest in the property and should arrange building insurance immediately. Most lenders require a certificate of currency noting them as an interested party before they will settle.
Absolutely. Off-the-plan contracts have unique considerations including sunset clauses, plan registration timelines, and deposit protection. We review these contracts carefully and advise you on any risks specific to buying before construction is complete.
