Your Cullacabardee settlement, handled properly
We look after property settlements right across Perth’s northern suburbs, and Cullacabardee, roughly 25 km north of our Myaree office, is one we know well from the paperwork side. The contract sets the deadlines. Our job is to meet them.
You might hear the job called conveyancing, settlement or both. In WA it is done by licensed settlement agents (conveyancers) or lawyers. We are a licensed settlement agent, which means we handle the transfer and the settlement, and we point you to a lawyer when legal advice is needed.
Cullacabardee is a fair way from Myaree, but home appointments can often be arranged. Ring to check availability, or we can run it by phone.
Cullacabardee property and what it means for your settlement
Around Cullacabardee you will see original homes on bigger blocks next to newer builds on subdivided lots. A green title house and a strata villa down the street are both normal sales, but they settle differently.
- Villa and townhouse complexes are usually strata, so the strata information needs to come in early
- Subdivided rear lots often share a driveway, which shows up on the title
- Long-held homes sometimes need a survivorship application before they can be sold
- Rates, water and any strata levies adjusted so each side pays only their share
- A settlement statement that sets out the final figures before the day
We also handle conveyancing around Cullacabardee in settlement agent Ballajura, Whiteman, Malaga, Lexia and Bennett Springs.

What Cullacabardee buyers and sellers ask us
Can you give me legal advice about my contract?
We are settlement agents, not lawyers. If your Cullacabardee contract raises something that needs legal advice, we will tell you and recommend you speak to a lawyer.
Who chooses the settlement agent?
You do. Buyers and sellers are each entitled to appoint a settlement agent or lawyer of their choice, and to change at any time. You do not have to use the one suggested by the real estate agent.
Can one settlement agent act for both the buyer and seller?
Only if both parties are given a written disclosure and consent. Many Cullacabardee buyers and sellers prefer to have their own settlement agent.
Is Cullacabardee too far for a home visit?
Not necessarily. Visits out to Cullacabardee can often be arranged, so ring us to check dates. Phone and email work just as well if a visit does not suit.
