Introduction

Intro

Selling property involves more than accepting an offer. Legal preparation, documentation, lender coordination, and settlement management all play a critical role in ensuring a smooth transaction.

At SettleEase Conveyancing, we help sellers prepare properly—reducing delays, avoiding complications, and supporting a successful settlement.

1. Prepare Legal Documentation

This may include:

• Contract of Sale
• Section 32 Vendor Statement
• title searches
• planning certificates
• rates information
• owners corporation certificates
• disclosure documentation

Accurate legal preparation is essential.

2. Understand Your Mortgage Position

If the property is mortgaged:

• payout figures may be required
• discharge authority must be prepared
• lender settlement coordination is necessary
• timing matters

Mortgage discharge delays can affect settlement.

3. Prepare For Buyer Conditions

Buyers may request:

• finance approval conditions
• inspections
• extensions
• contract amendments

Professional management helps handle negotiations correctly.

4. Settlement Preparation

Settlement includes:

✔ title transfer preparation
✔ lender coordination
✔ payout calculations
✔ adjustment statements

5. Final Property Handover
