Conveyancing is the legal transfer of property from seller to buyer. A lawyer or licensed conveyancer reviews the contract, runs searches, arranges settlement and flags problems before you are committed. Solicitors can also advise on anything beyond the transfer itself, such as disputes, trusts or complex title issues, while licensed conveyancers focus on the transaction. Property lawyers also act in commercial and retail leases, strata and body corporate disputes, defective building work and development applications.
Property is most Australians' largest asset, and every transaction carries legal risk.
Property law is state-based, including conveyancing, strata, tenancy, building and planning laws, with most settlements conducted electronically.
Understand the next step
Reviewing a purchase contract, administering a conveyance and resolving a building or tenancy dispute are different services. Explain whether you are buying, selling, leasing, developing or already in conflict. Confirm the scope offered by a lawyer or licensed conveyancer rather than assuming their services are identical.
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.

Good to know
For a straightforward residential purchase or sale, a licensed conveyancer is usually enough. Use a solicitor if the property is unusual, the contract has non-standard terms, or there is a dispute or estate involved.
Before you sign or bid at auction. Once contracts are exchanged or you've bought at auction, your ability to withdraw is limited.
Many firms quote a fixed professional fee, plus disbursements such as searches and registration fees. Ask for the total expected cost in writing.
