After accepting an offer, your sale is finalised with a legally binding Sale and Purchase Agreement. It's vital to have a property lawyer review this document, which details the price, conditions, and key dates.
The settlement period follows, allowing the buyer to conduct a pre-settlement inspection. On settlement day, the buyer's lawyer transfers the funds to your lawyer, who then pays your mortgage and agent fees before transferring the remaining balance to you and handing over the keys.
