LJ Hooker's property value website My House Value has some articles to assist you in the process of buying and selling homes. One article promotes the use of legal representatives in assessing your rights and responsibilities to do with the sale or purchase of homes.Another is to get legal advice to ensure you understand the issues and consequences of the transaction. Real estate agents may give plenty of advice during your dealings with them but they are not permitted to give legal advice (unless they are also registered and qualified lawyers.)
So, read all your documents carefully, make notes about the things you don't understand and take your list of questions to your solicitor. Your solicitor will also read the contract and highlight any unusual items and risks that appear in the contract. They will also check with various government bodies about future development and zoning plans and let you know about things not in the contract.
Of course your preferred law firm for conveyancing is Erina Legal. Our rates are competitive and we offer a quality service. Our team includes Wayne Brown, a former real estate agent (and manager) as well as our team of lawyers.
What will it cost? We charge $850 for a sale, and $1200 for a purchase for normal residential conveyances.
There are additional costs (disbursements) which are the fees involved with the transfer of land, certain searches for information from local and other government bodies, and so forth.
We can discuss these on a case by case basis as the nature of the purchase will drive what activities are required. If you are selling, or thinking of selling you can call us now to prepare your contract (real estate agents will require a contract prior to listing the house for sale.)
If you are buying you should contact us prior to signing the contract so we can advise you of the processes in detail and any major risks based on the contents of and attachments to the contract.
Or you can call now and get some general advise regarding conveyancing. Our number is 02 4365 6556 or click here and send an email to us via the contact us form.
