Honestly, moments like this are why we do what we do. Buying or selling property can be stressful, and it means the world when clients feel looked after along the way.

Thank you Claire & Wade, it was a pleasure working with you too 💕

Let's clear this up 🙋‍♀️ You do NOT need both a solicitor and a conveyancer for a standard property purchase in NSW. A licensed conveyancer (that's us) can handle contract review, settlement, and everything in between, without the law-firm price tag. Solicitors come in for more complex legal matters. For most home buyers and sellers, a conveyancer is all you need.

FAQ RAPID-FIRE FRIDAY

1. How much deposit do I actually need?
Usually 10%, but it can be negotiated.

2. How long does settlement take?
Typically 42 days from exchange, but it varies.

3. What's a Section 10.7 planning certificate?

📞 Please call us.

Seriously.

If you're about to transfer money and want to check our bank details...

Call.

If you're unsure whether an email came from us...

Call.

If something doesn't feel right...

Call.

We would much rather spend two minutes confirming our account details than see one of our clients lose money to a scam.

There's no such thing as being "too careful."

📞 Before you transfer ANY money…

STOP. CALL. CHECK.

Property transactions are increasingly being targeted by cyber criminals.

Even if an email looks genuine, never rely on bank account details sent by email alone.

✅ Always call your conveyancer using a trusted phone number to confirm account details before making any payment.

That one phone call could save you from transferring your money to the wrong account.

Your security is worth the extra minute.

Since the new AML/CTF requirements came into effect on 1 July, we've been answering lots of great questions from buyers and sellers.

The good news? For most clients, the process is straightforward.

We'll guide you through:
✅ Identity verification
✅ Client Authorisation
✅ Compliance checks
✅ What documents you'll need

Our goal is to make the legal side of buying and selling as simple as possible, so you can focus on the exciting part – your new home.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Wow. Reviews like this mean so much to us. 💙

A huge thank you to our wonderful client for taking the time to leave this Google review for Toni:

"I can’t recommend Toni enough for the amazing work she did for me during what was a complicated and stressful period for me. Toni was cool, calm and collected the entire way through the process, she clearly and regularly communicated with me and she consistently demonstrated a high level of knowledge and experience during the time she assisted me."

Buying and selling property isn't always straightforward, and we're proud to be the steady hand guiding our clients through every step of the journey.

If we've helped you buy, sell, or navigate your property transaction, we'd be incredibly grateful if you could take a minute to leave us a Google review. Your feedback helps other buyers and sellers find a conveyancer they can trust, and it helps our small business continue to grow. 🌱🏡

Leaving a review is quick, easy, and means the world to our team.

💬 Have you worked with us recently? We'd love to hear from you!

Today marks an important change for property transactions across Australia.

The new Anti-Money Laundering (AML) and Counter-Terrorism Financing (CTF) requirements are now officially in place for conveyancing services.

What does this mean for buyers and sellers?

✅ Identity verification is now mandatory
✅ Client Authorisation Forms must be completed
✅ Politically Exposed Person (PEP) checks are required
✅ Additional customer due diligence obligations apply

While there may be a few extra steps involved, these reforms are designed to help protect Australians from fraud, identity crime, money laundering, and financial crime.

💙 At East St Conveyancing, we're ready.

Our team will guide you through the process and help ensure your transaction remains as smooth and stress-free as possible.

If you're buying or selling property and have questions about the new requirements, we're only a phone call away.
