How do I engage a conveyancer?
Essentially the conveyancer needs to have a quick chat and guesstimate how many hours of work is involved - which is good for consumer because in most cases you can an idea of cost.
The quote is broken down into three main areas: 1. Conveyancing fee - which is negotiable 2. GST - based on above fee (10%) 3. Searches - which can vary from job to job
What other considerations should I weigh up, besides price?
- Experience in the industry
- Professional cover and membership of AAIC - www.aicsa.com.au (our professional body - where complaints can be lodged)
