Why LEAD?
What's next after your offer gets accepted and the agent sends you a copy of the contract?
You'll have to find a conveyancer or solicitor to act on your behalf as the buyer. Sometimes, the agent will recommend someone. However, this recommendation is mostly motivated by a commission which means it's better if you try to look around first. A lawyer friend is trustworthy, but if he is not a property lawyer, the experience required may be lacking.
Here are some tips when looking for a conveyancing firm:
- Find a property lawyer
- Get a fixed legal fee
- Costs should be transparent
- Third-party reviews
If your search satisfies all that's mentioned above, then you're off to a good start. Remember, what you're after is a firm that will provide you with security and peace of mind. That's the reason you're paying for their service in the first place.
Our Services
Selling Property Services
When engaging a firm, you must also know the services you should expect.
A solicitor should be able to:
- Thoroughly review your Contract and Section 32. Sometimes, this service is inclusive in the professional fee while in other setups, it's a separate cost and is optional.
- Provide legal advice. If you found someone with a fixed legal fee, you won't hesitate to ask all the questions. It's their duty to inform you of all possible implications of clauses in the contract.
- Make amendments to your contract. This is one of the benefits of having a solicitor - they can amend and they know the proper wordings to use in the contract.
- Make claims on your behalf. If the other side is at default, your solicitor will communicate with the other side to demand penalties, if applicable.
- Draft a Contract of Sale (for Sellers). If you have a well-experienced lawyer, they can build your contract in such a way that buyers cannot easily back out from the deal.

Why do you need Solicitors?
Buying Property Services
It's basic. Solicitors provide a wider scope of work with security and peace of mind. Conveyancers can only take you from point A to point B.
Now try to imagine you're the buyer and you decided to engage a conveyancer because they're cheaper by 200 dollars. You then sign the contract and later on, you find out there are damages on the property that the seller did not fix. You also learn that the seller had a solicitor prepare the contract. Do you think you have the edge?
That's right! The fact that you wouldn't know what the seller hired makes it more of a sensible reason to get a solicitor. It's like playing poker - you'll always want to turn out on top.
