Online conveyancing and settlement

Handled online, settled electronically.

Most of the Melbourne conveyancing process can be handled online — engagement, identity verification, document sharing and updates — and Victorian settlements occur electronically through PEXA. Legal review of your contract and direct client instructions remain central to the matter.

Electronic settlement

Settlement is coordinated in a digital workspace alongside the other side's representative, your incoming or discharging lender and the land registry — funds and title in a single coordinated step.

Online, not unattended

Online conveyancing is faster and more transparent than the paper process it replaced, but it is not automated. A property lawyer reviews the contract, raises issues and acts on your instructions throughout.
