The standard settlement period in NSW is 42 days (6 weeks) from exchange of contracts, but this can be negotiated. The overall timeline depends on how quickly contracts are exchanged, finance approval timeframes, completion of building and pest inspections, and coordination between all parties. We can work with shorter or longer settlement periods based on your circumstances.

Conveyancing is the legal process of transferring property ownership from one party to another. It covers contract preparation and review, property searches, exchange of contracts, and settlement. In NSW, conveyancing involves meeting strict legal requirements, managing prescribed documents, coordinating with lenders and real estate agents, and ensuring all obligations are met properly. Metro Conveyancing operates as part of Benchmark Legal Group, giving you specialist conveyancing with full legal backing.

While not legally required, it's strongly recommended. Property transactions involve legally binding contracts worth hundreds of thousands of dollars. A conveyancer ensures you understand your obligations, reviews contracts for issues, coordinates searches and inspections, manages settlement, and protects your interests throughout the process. Attempting to handle conveyancing yourself risks costly mistakes, missed legal requirements, and potential disputes.
