What You Can Expect From Us Through the Selling Process

Contract Preparation

You will need to a have a contract prepared before you advertise selling property in NSW. A legally binding contract needs to contain a number of prescribed documents and take into account statutory obligations with respect to implied warranties and contract terms.

We take comprehensive instructions from you and ask you pertinent questions to ensure your contract is compliant and clear.

We guide you on issues with which you may be unfamiliar: tenancies, foreign resident capital gains tax, GST, land tax, and disclosures.

We review your personal circumstances and discuss with you your requirements for with respectto matters like release of deposit clauses, simultaneous settlements, flexible settlement dates and vacant possession.

We work closelywith your nominated agent, to ensure that we have your contract ready to meet marketing and auction time frames.

Marketing

Although we are not actively involved in the marketing process, we may be contacted during this period by prospective purchasers enquiring further about your property or requesting contract amendments. We prioritise these communications and contact you immediately to discuss and prepare accurate and legally appropriate answers. We keep your agent informed so that they are aware of potential purchasers and any agreed contract amendments.

Exchange

Contract exchange is the point at which you and the purchaser enter into the legally binding contract.

When you sell at auction, you are bound when the hammer falls on the winning bid; the contract is signed and dated immediately following the auction to record your agreement. The purchaser needs to pay the deposit at exchange and does not have the benefit of a cooling off period.

With private treaty sales, you and the purchaser may sign the same contract or separate but identical contracts. Sometimes the agent facilitates the exchange, sometimes we are required to do so.

Needless to say, exchange can be facilitated in a number of ways and there are important procedures around payment of deposits and waiving of cooling off rights that need to be managed.

Whatever the approach, we manage this important exchange process, ensuring that the contract is correctly executed and validly exchanged.

Settlement Preparation

Between exchange of contracts and settlement, you and the Purchaser will need to complete various tasks both to ensure you are ready to settle and to fulfil essential legal obligations.

Shortly after exchange we contact you with clear instructions regarding your requirements for settlement.

Amongst other things, we advise and assist you with:

Preparing a Discharge Authority for your bank so they can be ready to discharge your mortgage settlement.
Ensuring applications for capital Gains Clearance Certificates have been lodged.
Preparing replies to requisitions/questions from the purchaser.
Verifying your identity and signing authorities to transfer the property.
Addressing any land tax liabilities/obligations.
Preparing and providing Draft and Final Settlement Statements.
Organising a release of deposit if required.
Advising you on your pre-settlement obligations and the settlement process.
Engaging with your managing agent for rental adjustments and the transfer of rental bonds (if required).
Booking settlement with all parties.
Obtaining bank details for sale proceeds.

We communicate with you regularly during this phase so that you can be confident that all legal obligations have been met and you can prepare for settlement with certainty.

Settlement

Settlement occurs when all funds owing for the purchase are transferred (financial settlement) and the legal title for the property is lodged at NSW Land Registry Services is transferred to the purchaser.

This is your sale finally coming to conclusion and we are focused on ensuring this important event happens smoothly and on-time.

On multiple occasions in the lead up to settlement we will confirm the settlement date and time to you and remind you of pre-settlement requirements.

As soon as settlement is completed, usually 30 – 60 minutes after the scheduled time, we will contact you to confirm that your purchase has settled.
