How Conveyancing Works in South Australia
South Australian conveyancing involves the preparation and review of a Form 1 Vendor Statement, which the seller must provide to the buyer. This document discloses key information about the property including title, zoning, and any encumbrances. Buyers have a 2 clear business day cooling-off period after receiving the Form 1 — shorter than most other states. Settlement is typically 30 to 42 days and is handled through PEXA. Your conveyancer will review the contract and Form 1, arrange searches, negotiate any special conditions, liaise with your lender, and attend settlement on your behalf.
Who can convey
Licensed conveyancers or solicitors. Conveyancers are licensed under the Conveyancers Act 1994 (SA) and regulated by Consumer and Business Services.
