Moving is Number 3 in the Top Five Most Stressful Life Events.

Moving usually starts with the sale of your property. Although it should be a happy and exciting event, transfer of your property can be stressful. It’s a complicated process which usually involves multiple role players.

Here’s a quick look at the three types of conveyancing attorneys who play a crucial role in the transfer process:

🔹 Transferring Attorneys
Responsible for transferring ownership from the seller to the buyer, these attorneys are appointed by the seller and manage the entire process, from collecting the purchase price to reconciling accounts. Although they represent the seller, their fees are typically payable by the buyer.

🔹 Registering (Bond) Attorneys
Most buyers need to borrow money from a bank to fund the purchase of a property. The lending bank insists on registering a bond as security for the loan. The Bond Attorneys are appointed by and represent the lending bank in registering a bond over the property. The Bond Attorneys ensure the financing is in place so the purchase can proceed smoothly. The buyer also pays for their services.

🔹 Cancellation Attorneys
If the seller borrowed money from a bank to buy the property, the property can’t be transferred unless arrangements are made to pay what is still owed to the lending bank so that the bond can be cancelled. The cancellation attorneys are appointed by the bank that holds the current mortgage to ensure that the seller’s financial obligations are settled in the transfer process. The seller pays these costs.

At Friedman Scheckter, we understand that each of these roles is vital to the successful sale of your property. Let our experienced team guide you through every step of the process. Contact us today to make your property transfer hassle-free!

Navigating Family Law?

When minor children are involved, the Family Advocate plays a crucial role in safeguarding their best interests.
Whether the matter is contested or settled amicably, the Family Advocate will investigate and provide written recommendations to the Court.
Even if a Deed of Settlement is signed, it must be endorsed by the Family Advocate before it becomes a Court Order.

Ensure your children’s well-being is prioritized—trust the experts to guide you through the process and give you peace of mind.
