What we check on Raymond Terrace property
Every contract gets a full review. These are the local items we look at closely in Raymond Terrace.
Flood planning
With the Hunter and Williams Rivers on its doorstep, many Raymond Terrace properties carry a flood notation on the section 10.7 certificate. We explain what it means for building, insurance and resale.
Insurance before you buy
Flood affected properties can cost much more to insure. Get an insurance quote early, ideally before you exchange. Our guide on getting an insurance quote before you buy explains why.
New estates and land
For new land and house and land packages, we check the plan, the covenants and the sunset date, so you know what you can build and when.
Older homes and approvals
Plenty of older homes have had extensions, carports and sheds added over the years. We check the approvals, because unapproved work can be a problem when you sell.

How long does conveyancing take?
For most NSW purchases, settlement is 42 days (six weeks) after exchange, unless the contract sets a different date. Getting from an accepted offer to exchange usually takes a few days to two weeks, depending on contract review, inspections and finance. For sellers, we can usually have your contract ready within a few business days of receiving your instructions.
When should I contact a conveyancer?
As early as possible. Buyers should have the contract reviewed before exchanging. Sellers need a contract prepared before the property can go on the market. Our buying questions answered and selling questions answered guides walk you through each step.
