We dot our i’s and cross our t’s. We are in the detail so you don’t have to be and deliver information in a way that makes sense to you.
Buying a property should be an exciting time. We will handle all the details, from the initial contract review through to settlement. We are in the detail so you don’t have to be.
From the preparation of your contract of sale, right up until settlement, we will handle all of the details from end to end, so you can focus on the next move.
Changes in family, like a death or divorce, can require a private change in property ownership among family members or associates. We can assist with this transfer.
You’ve found your dream home and the selling agent has given you a copy of the contract of sale, so what next? It pays to have a member of our team review the contract to ensure you are across the terms of sale.
In legal terms, conveyancing is the process of transferring the title of a property from one person to another, following the sale of a property. A conveyancer is there to ensure you meet all of the legal obligations required as part of that process, as a buyer or seller. At Dott & Crossitt, we know this process can seem complicated, and there are a lot of moving parts, but we pride ourselves on being in the detail, so our clients don’t have to be.
Yes. A conveyancer (or a solicitor) undertakes the steps required to ensure you have met all of your legal obligations when buying or selling a home. While it may have been possible for a non-qualified individual to ‘do their own conveyancing’ in the past, changes to the electronic settlement laws now mean it is essentially impossible not to involve a conveyancer or solicitor in your transaction. But don’t worry you’re in good hands with us.
A conveyancer is qualified to do all things necessary to facilitate the transfer of property to or from you. This includes providing review and advice on the contract for sale.
A solicitor is also qualified to review the contract but can additionally assist in enforcing the contracts through litigation or pre-litigation procedures. Needing this is rare, but it is good to have a solicitor in your corner if you need, and at Dott & Crossitt, we have both.
Dott & Crossitt is a conveyancing franchise with access to solicitors. The benefit of this, is that if issues arise throughout the sale or purchase of a property that requires litigation or pre litigation procedures, our solicitors are on hand to help.
Generally, we operate on a fixed fee model. We let you know what you can expect to pay up front, to ensure there are no surprises along the way.
We believe trust is an important part of any relationship, and buying and selling a home should have that same inherent thread. With Dott & Crossitt, we ensure you know what you need to, and take care of everything else behind the scenes. You can trust we will do what we say we will, and be in the detail so you don’t have to be.
We recommend choosing a conveyancer before you start viewing homes. Once you find your dream home, you will want to move quickly. Having an idea of the conveyancer you want to use ahead of time will put your mind at ease when you need a contract reviewed on a property you’re interested in.
However, don’t be concerned if you haven’t engaged us early. We understand that buying or selling a house doesn’t work on a nine to five schedule, and neither do we. We are available to support you in your purchase or sale whenever you need us, no matter the day or time
