1. What is Conveyancing?
Conveyancing is the process by which ownership of land is transferred from one owner to another. This most often occurs when a vendor (seller) and purchaser (buyer) enter into a contract of sale. The conveyancing process involves checking the legality of the transaction and ensuring that the property being transferred is actually the property referred to in the contract of sale. It includes ensuring that the vendor has made appropriate disclosure and that the property complies with relevant laws and council requirements. The conveyancing process also requires the preparation of certain transactional documents to ensure that changes in ownership of property can be legally registered.
2. What is a Section 32 Statement?
All vendors of land in Victoria must disclose certain information about the property being sold. This information is contained in the Section 32 Statement and the certificates attached to it. A Section 32 Statement is also sometimes described as a "Vendor’s Statement".
