Conveyancing in Wodonga & Albury

Local conveyancing, done properly

Buying or selling property is, for most people, the largest transaction they will ever make. It should not feel like a leap of faith. From our office at 87 Hume Street in Wodonga, Harris Lieberman has guided local buyers and sellers through the process for generations, handling residential, rural and commercial property across Wodonga, Albury and the wider North East.

We manage the whole conveyance for you: reviewing the contract before you sign, explaining the cooling-off position, coordinating finance and searches, and settling electronically through PEXA. You deal with the same local team from first contract to handing over the keys.

What the conveyancing process involves

• Contract review. We check the contract of sale and vendor’s statement before you sign, so you know exactly what you are buying and on what terms.
• Cooling-off and conditions. We explain your cooling-off rights and make sure finance, building and pest, and any special conditions are properly protected.
• Searches and enquiries. Title, council, water and other searches to reveal anything that affects the property, from easements to outstanding rates.
• Settlement. We adjust rates and other outgoings, coordinate with your lender and the other side, and complete settlement electronically so you are not chasing paperwork on the day.

The border is our home ground

Wodonga and Albury sit either side of the Murray, and property here frequently crosses the line between Victoria and New South Wales. Cooling-off periods, stamp duty and the searches required all differ between the two states. A firm that works both sides every week makes sure the right rules are applied and nothing slips, whether you are buying in one state, selling in the other, or both at once.
