From reviewing the contract to settlement, a conveyancer or property lawyer checks title, searches and special conditions, calculates adjustments and coordinates with banks and the other side. Most offer fixed fees.
Buying or selling property is usually the largest transaction people make. A missed issue in the contract or searches can be very expensive.
Conveyancing is governed by state law, with contracts, cooling-off rights and disclosure requirements differing between states. Most settlements now happen electronically through PEXA.
Understand the next step
Tell the adviser whether you are buying or selling, whether a contract is signed and the proposed completion date. Explain finance, ownership and any linked sale before requesting a quote.
Ask what happens if the transaction is delayed, unusual or becomes disputed.
Hobart, Glenorchy and Kingston are grouped for the Hobart & South search. For a transaction or dispute, distinguish between the place you live, the location of the asset and the venue named in any documents.
For property & conveyancing, ask which parts of the work the firm handles itself and whether it has relevant TAS experience. Let the lawyer know if a property, employer, other party or existing proceeding is outside Hobart & South. Your home address alone does not determine the applicable process.
Provide the address, parties and current contract or notice. Explain whether anything has been signed and identify every agreed date.
Ask which terms, searches and ownership questions will be reviewed. Explain finance, proposed use and any linked transaction.
Agree who communicates with agents, lenders and the other side. Confirm how documents are approved and what happens if the matter is delayed or disputed.
Separate legal fees from searches, registration, taxes and third-party expenses. Complex ownership, negotiations or a dispute may fall outside an advertised conveyancing price.
Ask for a written scope identifying the work you are authorising, the person responsible and when costs will be reviewed. If you only want advice on one step, say so before the firm begins wider work.
Seek review before signing where possible. Ask about the actual dates in your documents; cooling-off and completion arrangements differ across states and transactions.
Tasmania has a two-tier court system: the Magistrates Court and the Supreme Court, with no intermediate court. Guardianship, anti-discrimination and many review matters are heard by TASCAT. The Law Society of Tasmania issues practising certificates and the Legal Profession Board of Tasmania handles complaints.
Good to know
Typically title, planning certificates, rates and water, and depending on the property, strata, land tax and building searches.
Most matters start in the Magistrates Court. More serious cases go to the Supreme Court of Tasmania. Family law matters are heard by the Federal Circuit and Family Court of Australia.
Practising certificates in Tasmania are managed by the Law Society of Tasmania. You can check a solicitor's status on its public register or by contacting it directly.
