Electronic Conveyancing Now Available
What Is Conveyancing?
Conveyancing is the legal process of buying and selling land (with or without a building on the land).
What Is Electronic Conveyancing (e-Conveyancing)?
Electronic conveyancing offers conveyancers, lawyers and financial institutions an alternative way of settling conveyancing transactions by settling electronically through a central, electronic/online platform.
The online platform is called PEXA. PEXA stands for Property Exchange Australia and was established in 2010 with the objective of assisting the Australian property industry transition to a 100% electronic conveyancing process in the future.
There are a range of benefits for buyers and sellers which include:
Buyer
- On-time settlement (as documents are prepared and checked for errors prior to lodgement),
- Peace of mind (instant lodgement of documents with relevant authorities including the Titles Office), and
- No need for cheques (replaced with electronic transfer of funds).
Seller
- On time settlement (as documents are prepared and checked for errors prior to lodgement),
- Fast access to funds (funds are transferred as cleared funds on the day of settlement and so no waiting for cheques to clear), and
- Easy to use (signing of transfer documents by seller no longer required).
PEXA currently charges a fee of $56.32 per transaction.
