  The second time I have worked with Christine from Classic Conveyancing and she just continues to set the bar. We had a very quick settlement and Christine worked tirelessly (whilst on her holiday mind you) to make sure everything worked seamlessly for us. I couldn’t be more grateful for the amazing work she has done for us.

  Thank you Christine for helping my partner and I with buying our first home! Communication is so important to me and Christine’s communication was great. I would send an email and she would ALWAYS respond so quickly and cleared up any questions I had as a first home buyer. She made the whole process simple and easy. I would highly recommend! Also, Christine and Clyde Gonsalvez from “better financial tomorrow” work so well together. Happy new year!

  This is the third time in two years that I have used the services of Classic Conveyancing for both purchases and sale of my properties. Christine and her team provided excellent service and communication throughout each process and all my emails/concerns were always addressed promptly. August 2022 property purchase had so many hassles as the first off-the -plan property fell through but Christine made sure that everything proceeded smoothly including a stamp duty refund! January 2023 purchase had a few hassles but with sound advice and professional service from Christine, everything went smoothly. November 2023. The team at Classic Conveyancing were extremely professional and efficient in the sale of our apartment. Christine and Taylor made the whole process of selling a property easy and were quick to respond to any queries especially involving non-resident client. I would highly recommend the services of Classic Conveyancing and will continue to use them in the future. Thank you, Christine and Taylor!

Frequently asked questions

What is conveyancing?

When you buy and sell real estate, the legal ownership (title) of the property needs to be correctly transferred from the seller to the buyer – this process is known as conveyancing.

For many people, buying property is one of the largest financial transactions they will undertake, and while conveyancing is often assumed to be a “routine” legal task, there are numerous steps and legal checks involved to ensure that the process runs smoothly.

Entering a binding contract to buy or sell property creates enforceable legal obligations between the buyer and seller. Significant penalties can apply for breaching a contract, so it is important that the parties to a conveyancing transaction are aware of their legal rights and responsibilities and that their interests are protected.

Why do I need a conveyancer or solicitor when buying property?

Buying property involves complex legal documents, strict deadlines, and significant financial commitments. A conveyancer ensures that your legal rights are protected, the contract terms are fair, and that all searches, enquiries, and settlement processes are properly completed to avoid costly issues later.

What does Classic Conveyancing do for buyers?

We handle every stage of your purchase, from reviewing and negotiating the contract to preparing legal documents, arranging searches, managing communications between banks and agents, and completing settlement through PEXA. We also explain every step clearly so you can make informed decisions with confidence.

What is PEXA and how does online settlement work?

PEXA (Property Exchange Australia) is an online platform used to complete property settlements securely and efficiently. It allows funds and documents to be transferred electronically between parties, ensuring faster, safer, and more accurate settlements.

What is a cooling-off period and does it apply to all purchases?

In most private residential property purchases in New South Wales, buyers are entitled to a five-business-day cooling-off period after exchanging contracts. During this time, you can withdraw from the contract, although a small termination fee (usually 0.25% of the purchase price) applies. The cooling-off period does not apply to auctions or where it has been waived by agreement.

What searches and checks are carried out during conveyancing?

We carry out a range of searches and enquiries, including title searches, council records, zoning and planning checks, and government authority enquiries. We can also help you arrange pest and building inspections to identify any structural or compliance issues before settlement.

How long does the conveyancing process take?

Most conveyancing transactions in New South Wales take around 6 to 8 weeks from exchange of contracts to settlement, although this can vary depending on factors such as finance approval, search results, or the vendor’s readiness.

What costs are involved in buying a property?

In addition to the purchase price, you may need to pay stamp duty (transfer duty), registration fees, search fees, lender fees (if applicable), and professional legal fees. We will provide you with a clear breakdown of costs upfront so there are no surprises.

Can you help if I’m a first-home buyer?

Absolutely. We regularly assist first-home buyers through every step of the process — from understanding contracts and government grants to finalising settlement. Our goal is to make the experience as smooth and stress-free as possible.

When should I contact a conveyancer?

It’s best to contact us before signing the contract. This allows us to review the terms, identify any potential issues, and negotiate changes to protect your interests before you commit to the purchase.

How do I get started with Classic Conveyancing?

You can contact us by calling (02) 9623 2777, emailing co****@***********om.au, or completing our online enquiry form. We’ll discuss your situation, outline the process, and guide you through the next steps to secure your new property with confidence.
