When selling my property, what do I do first?

When making your decision to sell residential property the first thing you should do is consult your conveyancer.

Selling your property can feel overwhelming, but having the right team in place makes the process straightforward and stress-free that’s where we come in!

 

One of the first and most important steps is preparing the Contract of Sale and Section 32 Statement.

Once instructed, we commence preparing the sale documentation by ordering the required certificates and searches, reviewing the title details, and ensuring all legal requirements are met.

Certain documents are legally required to be attached to the Contract of Sale and Section 32 Statement. These “Prescribed Documents” form an essential part of the sale documentation, and if they are missing, a purchaser may have the right to withdraw from the contract without penalty.

Having these documents prepared early allows your real estate agent to provide contracts to prospective purchasers and their representatives without delay, helping your sale progress smoothly from the outset.

 

From contract signing through to settlement, we act on your behalf and guide you through every stage of the transaction, keeping you informed throughout the process and working to ensure the matter progresses as stress-free as possible.

Here at Balben Property Transfers we complete a detailed checklist with you, obtaining all of the necessary information.

We always have your best interests in mind and endeavour to keep the whole process as simple and easy as possible.
