Conveyancing FAQs

NSW and SA are kept separate because the process, documents and timing are different in each state.

Have your own question? Ask away

What does a conveyancer actually do in South Australia?

A conveyancer manages the legal and practical side of a property transaction, including reviewing documents, preparing the Form 1 where required, coordinating with agents and other parties, and carrying the matter through to settlement.

I am selling in South Australia — what should I click first?

If you are selling in SA, the best starting point is the Order Form 1 option (under Services, Selling), because that is usually the first key document needed to properly move the sale forward.

I am buying in South Australia — where should I start on the website?

If you already have a contract or Form 1, the best place to start is pre-contract advice or the upload option, so the actual documents can be reviewed rather than giving only general guidance.

What is the Form 1 in South Australia?

The Form 1 is the main disclosure document used in SA property transactions. It contains important information about the property, and once it is served, the cooling-off period starts to run.

Why does the website ask whether I am buying or selling first?

Because the process is different depending on the type of matter. The website is designed to guide you into the correct SA service pathway first, so you are not reading content that does not apply to your situation.

What if I am not sure which SA service I need?

That is completely fine. If you are unsure, start with the 10 second quote or the relevant service video. The website is meant to narrow things down quickly, not make things more complicated.

Can I upload my documents through the website?

Yes. If you already have the contract or Form 1, uploading it is usually the fastest way for us to understand your position and guide you properly.

Do I need to physically attend the office?

No. Your SA matter can generally be handled electronically, including signing documents remotely, which usually makes the process much easier for clients.

Are all SA costs paid upfront?

Not usually. In many matters, search costs are paid at the start because they are incurred immediately, while much of the professional work is dealt with later in the transaction.

What should I do if I just want to speak to someone first?

If you would rather understand the process before uploading anything, use the quote option or contact form first. That way, we can point you to the correct next step without you needing to guess.

Why are NSW and SA kept separate on the website?

Because the process, documents and timing are different in each state. The website was intentionally built so clients are guided into the correct state-specific service path rather than being overwhelmed by mixed information.

Online conveyancing services (NSW and SA)

Conveyancing should not feel confusing or out of control.

Designed for modern transactions

We provide clear, practical guidance so you understand exactly what you are signing, what deadlines matter, and what risks need attention before problems arise.

Our process covers contract reviews, strata and complex matters, leased properties, private sales, family transfers and deceased estate transfers. Most matters can be handled remotely, with a streamlined digital workflow and clear written updates throughout.

If you are under time pressure to sign, exchange, or meet a cooling-off deadline, we can prioritise urgent pre-contract advice, including after-hours support where required.

Clear pricing and fixed fees

We provide upfront cost clarity, so you know where you stand from the outset. Our fees are structured by stage (for example, pre-contract advice versus full conveyancing through to settlement) and we outline any out-of-pocket costs so there are no surprises later.

If your matter is time sensitive, we recommend starting with a contract review first, then proceeding to full conveyancing once you are ready.

Digital (PEXA) settlements and risk management

Most settlements are completed electronically, and our workflow is built around modern digital conveyancing processes. We also apply practical risk controls, including secure identity verification and strong cyber security checks, because payment fraud and impersonation scams remain a major risk in property transactions.

In addition, compliance expectations are increasing across the industry, including AML/CTF preparation and privacy-related obligations affecting how client information is collected and handled.

Before you sign

Not yet. Let us read it first.

Upload the contract or Form 1 and tell us your deadline. You will get clear written advice, and we can take it from there through to settlement.
