Conveyancing Process for Buyers & Sellers

Stress-free path from signing to settlement

We start by listening. Every property transaction is unique, and we want to understand your goals, concerns and timelines. From there, we walk you through what to expect, from signing to settlement, so you feel informed and supported every step of the way.

Whether you’re buying or selling, we handle the heavy lifting. Our team digs into every contract clause and property detail to uncover conditions that might affect your rights or obligations. For buyers, you’ll receive a detailed Letter of Advice outlining any potential risks before you sign.

With decades of experience and specialist technical knowledge, our conveyancers quickly identify and resolve potential issues. Comprehensive document searches and risk checks ensure you get clear, accurate advice you can rely on.

Conveyancing involves multiple moving parts – from banks and brokers to agents and buyers/sellers. You’ll have a dedicated senior conveyancer who manages all communications and coordinates every detail, so nothing falls through the cracks.

Every step leads to this: a timely, stress-free settlement. By planning ahead, communicating proactively, and resolving issues early, we ensure your property settles exactly when it should, without surprises.

Commercial & Industrial Property Tax: What Buyers, Owners & Tenants Need to Know

Victoria’s Commercial and Industrial Property Tax regime is still relatively new, but its long-term implications are becoming increasingly important for anyone involved in commercial property.

In this episode, we break down what buyers, owners and tenants should understand about CIPT — and why it needs to form part of the due diligence process.

In this episode

00:00 — Welcome to Commercial Property Uncovered
Meet the three perspectives behind the podcast: property, legal and finance.

02:00 — What is CIPT?
We explain the transition from stamp duty towards an annual tax on commercial and industrial property.

04:00 — Understanding the 10-year transition
Why knowing when a property entered the regime is critical when assessing a purchase.

07:00 — A practical example
We use a $1 million commercial property to illustrate the difference between a property entering the regime for the first time and one that has already entered.

10:00 — What does CIPT mean for tenants?
Why tenants should examine their leases carefully and understand whether the tax can be passed through as an outgoing.

11:00 — Finding opportunities in the market
Could properties that have already entered the regime create opportunities for future buyers?

15:00 — Why property classification matters
We discuss zoning, property codes and the importance of reviewing the relevant documentation.

18:00 — A real-world regional property example
A client faced a choice between taking a regional stamp duty concession or potentially avoiding a future CIPT obligation.

19:00 — The transition loan program
We discuss the Victorian transition loan program and some of the practical challenges buyers need to consider.

22:00 — Can CIPT influence property values?
Why the market may start paying more attention to properties that have already entered the regime.

25:00 — A major saving for a buyer
A real-world transaction demonstrates how the CIPT position can create a significant difference between what a previous owner paid and what a subsequent buyer may pay.

27:00 — How to identify properties already in the regime
The importance of checking the transaction history and relevant Section 32 and State Revenue Office information.

30:00 — Looking beyond the purchase price
A $5 million property demonstrates why buyers need to understand the full cost of ownership, including land tax, CIPT, rates and other outgoings.

33:00 — Wins & Warnings
A rural property transaction uncovers title discrepancies and land encroachments — highlighting why detailed due diligence matters.

Key takeaways

• Understand whether the property is already in the CIPT regime.
• Establish when it entered the regime.
• Consider the long-term tax implications, not just the upfront purchase costs.
• If you’re a tenant, understand whether CIPT can be passed through under your lease.
• Compare properties based on total ownership costs.
• Get the right legal, tax, finance and property advice before committing.

The question to ask

When did this property enter the CIPT regime, and what does that mean for me as the next owner or tenant?
