How do I choose a conveyancer or solicitor for my sale?

Choosing the right legal representative helps avoid problems and delays when selling. Both licensed conveyancers and lawyers can prepare your contract and settle the sale.

Key Steps

• Check licensing, experience and reviews (must be licensed in Victoria)
• Ask for a fixed/fair quote (range: $1,000–$2,200+; confirm inclusions)
• Clarify communication (updates at each stage)
• Ask about typical issues for your property/suburb

DIY vs. Professional

It’s risky for owners to handle contracts and Section 32 themselves—full-service, insured practitioners minimise risk. Collings can recommend reputable conveyancers.
