Settlement Agent Henley Brook

Settling a Henley Brook sale or purchase

Buying or selling in Henley Brook? The suburb is roughly 30 km north-east of our Myaree office, in the Swan Valley, and like everywhere in WA the conveyancing starts the moment the offer and acceptance is signed.

In Western Australia, conveyancing is carried out by licensed settlement agents, sometimes called conveyancers, or by lawyers. We are a licensed real estate settlement agent. We are not lawyers, so if something in your contract needs legal advice we will say so and suggest you speak to one.

Want to meet in person? Call first and we will let you know if a visit to Henley Brook works for the dates you need. Otherwise phone and email do the job.

Henley Brook houses, units and land

Henley Brook mixes semi-rural land with newer housing, so the properties we settle here range widely. Larger lots and anything with extra structures or water arrangements need a careful look at the contract.

  • What you can do on the land is a council question, so ask the council before you sign
  • Larger lots can be on more than one title
  • New estates sit next to older rural properties, so no two sales look alike
  • 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

Questions Henley Brook clients ask their settlement agent

Can you give me legal advice about my contract?

We are settlement agents, not lawyers. If your Henley Brook 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 Henley Brook buyers and sellers prefer to have their own settlement agent.

Is Henley Brook too far for a home visit?

Not necessarily. Visits out to Henley Brook can often be arranged, so ring us to check dates. Phone and email work just as well if a visit does not suit.
