The Process
What is the Conveyancing Process in Western Australia?
Buying or selling property can seem complex, but with the right guidance, the conveyancing process is straightforward and stress-free. At Title Settlement Services, we manage every stage of the transaction, ensuring all legal and financial requirements are met, and your settlement proceeds smoothly.
The process begins when a property is listed for sale, and an offer is made. Usually, a real estate agent manages negotiations and prepares the Contract for Sale, typically using the standard REIWA contract. Once the seller accepts an offer, a contract is formed, subject to any agreed conditions such as finance approval, building inspections, or other special conditions.
When signing the Contract for Sale, both the buyer and seller should nominate a conveyancer, lawyer, or settlement agent. Although not compulsory, appointing an experienced settlement agent helps ensure all obligations are met, deadlines are achieved, and the transaction progresses efficiently.
Once appointed, your settlement agent will receive a copy of the signed contract from the real estate agent. We will then contact you to confirm our appointment, explain the process, and provide any documents required to commence the settlement.
The contract becomes unconditional once all conditions have been satisfied or waived by the relevant parties.
After the contract becomes unconditional, your settlement agent conducts the necessary searches and enquiries with relevant authorities. These may include the local council, Water Corporation, State Revenue Office, Landgate, and, where applicable, the strata company. These searches help identify any outstanding rates, taxes, charges, or matters affecting the property.
In the lead-up to settlement, your settlement agent prepares the settlement statement, calculating adjustments for council rates, water rates, strata levies, and land tax based on the settlement date. We also liaise with banks, lenders, and other parties to ensure all documentation and funds are ready for settlement.
