The Process

The Conveyancing Process for selling your property

Steps involved in selling your property:
Did you know that your property can not be put to market by a Real Estate Agent until a Contract for Sale is prepared and the Real Estate Agent has a copy of the contract? 

To enable this we firstly need to obtain certain information about the property such as the address and any inclusions & exclusions.  We also need details of any building work done on the property that may require Home Owners Warranty Insurance together with a survey and a building certificate if you have one.

At Oasis Conveyancing we have a detailed Vendor Instruction Sheet that all new clients need to complete and return to us so that we can prepare a Contract for Sale in the most efficient way.
