Qualifications and Credentials: Ensure your conveyancer is licensed and associated with reputable legal bodies, like the Law Institute of Victoria or the Australian Institute of Conveyances.
Experience: Experience is crucial. An experienced conveyancer can handle complex issues efficiently. Melissa advises checking their track record in transactions similar to yours.
Transparency with Fees: Conveyancers should clearly disclose their fee structure, including professional fees and disbursements. Melissa warns against hidden charges, advocating for upfront comprehensive quotes.
Accessibility and Communication: Choose a conveyancer who is responsive and communicates clearly. Prompt responses and regular updates are essential for a stress-free experience.
Local Knowledge: A conveyancer with local expertise or knowledge of state-specific property markets can provide valuable insights and navigate regional regulations effectively.



The importance of researching conveyancers

- Recommendations and Reviews: Word of mouth and online reviews, such as Google reviews or Trustpilot, can offer insights into a conveyancer's reliability and customer satisfaction.

- Testimonials: Video testimonials and client feedback on the conveyancer's website can validate their service quality.



Risks associated with choosing an unsuitable conveyancer
