What About Buying?

Buying a property can feel overwhelming. Let us handle the conveyancing while you focus on finding your dream home.

A good first step is to speak with your bank or a finance broker to determine your borrowing capacity and obtain a pre‑approval. This indicates how much you can borrow and helps set your budget.

After finding a property and negotiating a price with the real estate agent, nothing is binding until contracts are exchanged. At exchange you benefit from a 5‑business‑day cooling‑off period during which you can change your mind, although you may forfeit 0.25% of the purchase price. During this time you may also obtain pest, building or survey reports; we can recommend qualified professionals.

If you don’t have the cash deposit available, you may be able to use a deposit bond in lieu of cash if the vendor agrees. A deposit bond secures 10% of the purchase price and confirms you will pay the full amount on settlement. We can arrange this for you.
