Here’s what happens from the moment you find a property to getting the keys.
Once you’ve found a property you’d like to buy, get in touch with us before you sign anything. We’ll review the Contract of Sale and the Section 32 Vendor Statement to make sure there are no hidden issues.
We carefully examine the contract terms and Section 32 statement, checking for any red flags, special conditions, or risks. We’ll explain everything in plain English and advise whether it’s safe to proceed.
Once you’re happy to go ahead, you sign the contract. In Victoria, you typically have a 3-business-day cooling-off period for private sales. At auction, there is no cooling-off period.
We perform essential property searches — including title searches, planning certificates, water and council rates — to confirm there are no encumbrances, debts, or planning issues affecting the property.
If your contract is subject to finance, we track your approval timeline and ensure conditions are met on time. We also liaise with your bank or mortgage broker to prepare for settlement.
Before settlement, we calculate rate adjustments (council, water, owners corporation fees) and prepare the final settlement statement. We ensure all figures are accurate and fair.
On settlement day, ownership officially transfers to you. We coordinate with all parties — the vendor’s representative, your lender, and the land registry — to make sure everything goes smoothly. You get the keys!

Typically 30 to 90 days from signing the contract to settlement, depending on the terms agreed. We keep you updated throughout the entire process.
As early as possible — ideally before you sign anything. If you’re attending an auction, get the contract reviewed at least a few days beforehand.
A Section 32 (Vendor Statement) is a legal document the seller must provide before a property is sold. It contains important details about the property including title, planning, and any restrictions.
