Residential Sales, Purchases & Private Contracts
Stress-Free Residential Settlements in Adelaide
Buying or selling? We handle the legal paperwork so you can move with confidence. Fixed Fees. Local Experts.
Buying or selling a home is one of the biggest financial transactions of your life. At 1836 Conveyancing, we take the confusion out of the South Australian property market. Whether you are buying your first home, selling an investment, or signing a private contract, our job is simple: we protect your legal interests and help you settle on time.
We manage the entire life-cycle of your settlement, from contract review to the final exchange of keys.
Residential Sales & Purchases We act for both buyers and sellers across South Australia. Our fixed-fee service includes preparing all legal documentation, adjusting rates and taxes (so you don't pay the previous owner's bills), and attending settlement digitally via PEXA.
Pre-purchase Advice (Contract Review) Before you sign, let us check the fine print. A Contract of Sale is a legally binding document. Once the cooling-off period expires, you are locked in. We offer pre-purchase advice to review the Contract and Form 1, identifying "red flags" like easements, encumbrances, or special conditions that could cost you money later.
Private Contract Preparation Have you found a buyer yourself? If you are selling to a neighbour, tenant, or friend without a Real Estate Agent, we can prepare the Private Contract of Sale and Form 1 for you. This ensures the sale is legally valid while saving you money on agent commissions.
Frequently Asked Questions about Buying & Selling
How much are conveyancing fees in Adelaide? We offer fixed-fee conveyancing to keep your costs predictable. Our fee covers the professional work to review your contract, verify your identity, and complete the settlement. Government registration fees and search costs (disbursements) are calculated separately. Contact us for a precise quote.
When should I engage a conveyancer? Ideally, before you sign the contract. We can review the Form 1 and contract terms during your cooling-off period to ensure there are no nasty surprises. If you have already signed, contact us immediately so we can review all documents before the cooling off deadlines expire.
What is PEXA and do I need to use it? PEXA is the digital platform used for property settlements in Australia. It allows funds to settle instantly rather than waiting for cheques to clear. 1836 Conveyancing is fully PEXA-certified, ensuring your settlement is fast, secure, and paperless.
