What Affects Your Conveyancing Fee
Your fixed fee is set once we understand the property type, purchase price, state and whether the matter has any added complexity, such as a strata title, off-the-plan contract or unusual title condition. Disbursements such as search fees and PEXA lodgement fees are itemised separately so you know exactly what to expect. Request a quote for an exact, fixed figure for your purchase.
