Ulladulla Conveyancing will complete ALL the legal work involved
when selling a property and assist you every step of the way
It is law that a complete Contract must be available before a real estate
agent (or yourself if selling privately) can advertise your property for sale.

When you have decided to sell your property, Melanie will take instructions
from you over the telephone (which usually takes a
pprox. 10 minutes).

Melanie will then conduct all necessary searches and order all necessary
certificates on the same day that she takes instructions from you to ensure
that the Contract is prepared and delivered to you or your Agent without
delay.

Once an offer has been accepted by you, the agent (or yourself if selling
privately) will advise Melanie of the details and she will then send a copy
of the Contract to you for you to sign and send a copy of the Contract to
the purchaser's solicitor/conveyancer.

An exchange of contracts should then usually take place within
approximately one week.
EXCHANGE

Once the purchaser's solicitor/conveyancer has reviewed the Contract
(and possibly asked questions or requested amendments to the Contract),
completed the searches/enquiries, made sure the purchaser's finance is
arranged and had the Contract signed by the purchaser, contracts can
then be "exchanged" which will result in a
legally binding agreement.
The exchange takes place after the contracts are swapped i.e. the owner
is given the buyers contract and the buyer is given the owners contract and
the buyer has handed over the deposit.  Completion/Settlement will then
usually take place after 6 weeks which is when you will receive the balance
purchase price and will have to hand over the keys.

Once an exchange of contracts has taken place, Melanie will complete all
necessary documentation on your behalf and arrange for your Bank to
release the mortgage, if required.
SETTLEMENT / COMPLETION

Completion, also known as settlement, is when the buyer pays the balance
of the purchase price, becomes the legal owner and collects the keys
before moving in.

Melanie will attend settlement on your behalf, ensuring that all relevant
documents are handed to the purchaser and bank cheques are received
on your behalf.  If you have a mortgage, the Bank will also attend settlement
and Melanie will hand them any money owing on the property.  Melanie can
then either personally deliver your cheque to you or deposit it into your
account immediately following settlement.

If you are buying a house using the funds from the sale of your current
house this is called a Simultaneous Settlement.  Melanie can act on your
behalf on a Simultaneous Settlement and will co-ordinate settlement to go
through smoothly.
