Conveyancing for Sydney buyers and sellers
NSW conveyancing works the same way in Sydney as it does in the Hunter. Fixed fees, solicitors and licensed conveyancers, and people who answer the phone.
Can a Hunter based conveyancer handle a Sydney property? Yes. The Contract for Sale and the conveyancing laws are the same across NSW, identity checks and signing are done online, and settlement happens electronically through PEXA. RM Property Conveyancing acts for Sydney buyers and sellers without you needing to visit an office. We’re especially useful if you’re selling in Sydney and buying in the Hunter, Lake Macquarie or on the Central Coast, because one team handles both.

What we look for in a Sydney contract
Every contract comes with a section 10.7 planning certificate from council, plus the title documents. In Sydney, these are the issues we see most, and what they mean for you.
Strata and special levies
Most Sydney apartments and many townhouses are strata titled. We look at the levies, by-laws, the capital works fund and any special levies coming, and recommend a strata report before you commit.
Buying at auction
There’s no cooling-off period when you buy at auction. You’re bound when the hammer falls, so we review the contract and negotiate any changes before auction day, not after.
Heritage conservation areas
Many older Sydney suburbs sit in heritage conservation areas. That can limit changes to the outside of a home, extensions and demolition. We flag it so you can check your plans with council first.
Selling in Sydney, buying in the regions
If you’re moving to the Hunter, Lake Macquarie or the Central Coast, we can act on both sides and line up the settlements, so the money from your sale goes straight into your purchase on the same day.
