Frequently Asked Questions

I’m buying a house, why should I use a lawyer to do my conveyancing?

Buying a home is a big deal. For the vast majority of people it’s the single largest investment they’ll ever make. While real estate transactions might appear simple, they are often rife with potential legal problems. The big difference between lawyers and notaries is that only lawyers can advise you on legal matters and represent you in disputes. A lawyer will identify any potential legal issues and work to resolve them before they become problems.

Hiring a lawyer early in the home-buying process can save you time, risk, and money. At the outset of the deal, your lawyer will review the contract to prevent you from agreeing to something that is not in your interests, and to ensure there are no legal issues in the contract that may prevent the deal from closing. Once the contract is finalized, your lawyer’s job is to make sure that you obtain what you contracted to purchase. Most importantly, this means making sure that you obtain good title to the property, free from any outstanding charges, liens, debts, or other encumbrances that may affect your use and enjoyment of your home. Your lawyer will make sure you don’t also buy someone else’s legal problems or debts when you buy your home. Buying a home may be the largest investment of your life. It pays to hire an expert to protect this investment. A lawyer will help you get what you bargain for, at the price you agree to pay, and on the terms you understand.
