What to expect during the real estate settlement process

Buying a property is a huge milestone, and there’s a lot to think about during the process – but what exactly happens during property settlement?

The property settlement process

In most cases, the real estate agent you worked with during the purchase process will liaise with your property settlement agent. Once you’ve signed the contract and it’s been accepted by the seller, your property settlement agent will begin coordinating the various steps involved in transferring ownership of the property. This includes ordering title searches and preparing transfer documents.

You’ll also need to organise insurance cover for the property from the date of settlement.

On settlement day, your property settlement agent will oversee the final steps involved in transferring ownership of the property. Including drawing down your loan to pay for the property and lodgement of documents at Landgate to register your name as the proprietor of the land Once settlement is finalised, you will receive a call with the good news that your property has “settled” meaning you can now contact the Agent to collect your keys and enjoy your new home!
