When reaching out to a conveyancer, the most important question to ask is the cost of their services.

Conveyancer fees generally consist of two parts: their professional fee (plus 10% GST) and disbursements. The total fee can vary depending on individual circumstances. For example, Australian residents or PR holders may not require foreign approval, and cash buyers don’t need to deal with a bank or brokerage. Regardless, it’s best to share your situation with the conveyancer upfront and ask for a fixed price. A clear, fixed price with no hidden fees is the ideal approach to avoid surprises.
