💼 Conveyancing Series — Part 3: Step 2 — Appointment of a Conveyancer

Once the Offer to Purchase is signed, the next step is to appoint a conveyancer — a specialised attorney who handles the legal transfer of property.

Who chooses the conveyancer?
✅ In most sales, the seller nominates the conveyancer.
✅ However, both parties can agree on a conveyancer they trust.

What the conveyancer does:
1️⃣ Drafts and prepares all transfer documents
2️⃣ Liaises with banks, the municipality, and the Deeds Office
3️⃣ Ensures all legal requirements are met
4️⃣ Protects your interests during the transaction

💡 Tip: Only attorneys who are also qualified conveyancers can register property transfers in South Africa.

Stay tuned for Part 4 next Monday — we’ll take you through the final step: Transfer & Registration.

📑Conveyancing Series — Part 2: Step 1 — The Offer to Purchase

The conveyancing process starts the moment a buyer and seller sign an Offer to Purchase (OTP).

An OTP is a legally binding contract that sets out:
✅ The agreed purchase price
✅ Any conditions (e.g., subject to bond approval)
✅ Timeframes for the sale process

Why it’s important:

Once signed, both parties are committed.

Changing your mind can have serious legal and financial consequences.

💡 Tip: Always read and understand the OTP before signing. If in doubt, ask a conveyancer or attorney to explain it in plain language.

Stay tuned for Part 3 on Thursday, where we’ll explain the role of the conveyancer in detail.

🏠 Conveyancing Series — Part 1: What is Conveyancing?

Buying or selling a property is exciting — but the legal process behind it is called conveyancing.

Conveyancing is the formal legal process of transferring ownership of a property from the seller to the buyer. It ensures that:
✅ The sale complies with all legal requirements
✅ Ownership is properly recorded in the Deeds Office
✅ Both buyer and seller are protected throughout the process.

Only an attorney who is also a qualified conveyancer may register a property transfer in South Africa.

Follow our Conveyancing Series every Monday and Thursday to learn each step in the process — and how we at Ferhana Jada Attorneys make it smooth, secure, and stress-free.

Why Having a Valid Will is Essential

A will is more than just a document — it’s your voice after you’re gone. Without one, the law decides how your estate is divided, which may not reflect your wishes.

3 Key Reasons You Need a Will:
1️⃣ Protect your loved ones — Make sure your family is provided for according to your wishes.

2️⃣ Avoid disputes — A clear will reduces the risk of conflict among beneficiaries.

3️⃣ Save time and costs — Without a will, the administration process can be slower and more expensive.

💡 Tip: Review your will every few years or after major life changes (marriage, divorce, birth of a child, property purchase).
