Unconditional
Buyer conditions are satisfied and the matter progresses toward settlement.

Final inspection & settlement
Buyers complete the final inspection, settlement is completed and the keys or handover follow the agreed arrangements.
Know what to do before you commit
Whether you are still looking, have received a contract, or are preparing for auction,
getting conveyancing advice early can
help you understand the legal and settlement position before you commit.

What clients say
“I highly recommend The Conveyancing Team for anyone buying or selling property in Victoria. They managed the simultaneous settlement of my previous home sale and my new home purchase flawlessly. Navigating Section 32 vendors statements and tight settlement windows can be incredibly stressful, but their team handled the coordination perfectly. They kept everything on track for a smooth, same-day settlement, meaning I didn't have to worry about a thing. Communication was clear and proactive throughout the entire process. They explained every legal step simply, responded to emails almost instantly, and ensured all paperwork was immaculate. If you want a stress-free property transaction, look no further than The Conveyancing Team.”Zaki Yezdery · Google review
Before you contact Richard
A few quick answers to common questions about getting started.
Can I contact Richard before I have signed a contract?
Yes. If you are considering a purchase, preparing for auction or getting ready to sell, you can contact Richard to discuss where you are up to.
What does the $990 fee apply to?
It applies to an eligible standard Victorian purchase or sale for an individual Australian citizen or permanent resident. Company and trust matters are outside the standard fee.
Are searches and other third-party costs included?
No. AML/identity screening, VOI, searches, certificates, PEXA, statutory charges and non-standard work are separate and identified in your written quote.
Do I deal directly with Richard?
Yes. Richard is your direct point of contact throughout the conveyancing matter.
What happens before your matter is accepted
An initial enquiry is only the starting point. Before The Conveyancing Team acts for you, Richard must confirm that the matter can be accepted and the scope of the engagement.
Engagement first
Your matter does not begin until the engagement is accepted in writing and the scope and applicable fees are confirmed.
Identity and compliance checks
Depending on the matter, identity verification, AML/CTF checks and other compliance requirements may need to be completed before we act.
Time-sensitive matters
Please tell Richard about any important date when you enquire. Do not rely on an initial website enquiry as confirmation that a deadline is being monitored.
Clear boundaries, fewer surprises
Important information about payment safety, identity checks and the limits of website information.
Verify bank details
Never rely only on bank details received by email. Verify payment instructions using a telephone number you already know.
Settlement funds
The Conveyancing Team does not operate a conveyancer trust account. Settlement funds are not held in our business account and are handled through the applicable settlement process.
Required identity checks
AML/CTF and Verification of Identity requirements may apply. Richard will explain what is needed and how to provide it securely.
