Need a settlement agent in Piesse Brook?
Buying or selling in Piesse Brook? The suburb is roughly 25 km east of our Myaree office, in the Perth Hills, and like everywhere in WA the conveyancing starts the moment the offer and acceptance is signed.
In WA the person running your settlement is usually a licensed settlement agent, also called a conveyancer, or a lawyer. We are the former. We prepare and check the settlement documents, handle the figures and lodge with Landgate, and if anything needs legal advice we will recommend you get it.
Want to meet in person? Call first and we will let you know if a visit to Piesse Brook works for the dates you need. Otherwise phone and email do the job.
Piesse Brook homes and the paperwork behind them
Property in Piesse Brook is a bit different to the flat suburbs. Larger blocks and semi-rural homes are common, and the contract often has more in it about what stays and what goes.
- Sheds, tanks and outbuildings should be clearly covered in the contract
- Some properties sit across more than one lot or title, which means more documents to line up
- It pays to have building inspections and insurance quotes sorted before your finance goes unconditional
- A settlement statement that sets out the final figures before the day
- Lodgement with Landgate through electronic settlement

From accepted offer to settled in Piesse Brook
Buying in Piesse Brook? The contract will usually have conditions to satisfy before settlement, such as finance approval and inspections. While those are sorted, we search the title, chase the figures and prepare the transfer.
We also handle transfer duty as part of the process, and before settlement you get the chance to do a final inspection to check the property is in the same condition as when you made your offer.

Your Piesse Brook settlement questions answered
Do I have to attend settlement?
No. Transfers and mortgages in WA generally have to be lodged electronically, so settlement is completed online and you do not need to attend. We let you know once your Piesse Brook settlement has gone through.
Is there a cooling-off period when I buy in Piesse Brook?
Generally, no. Once a WA property contract is signed there is no cooling-off period unless one has been added as a special condition, so be sure before you sign.
Can you give me legal advice about my contract?
We are settlement agents, not lawyers. If your Piesse Brook contract raises something that needs legal advice, we will tell you and recommend you speak to a lawyer.
Is Piesse Brook too far for a home visit?
Not necessarily. Visits out to Piesse Brook can often be arranged, so ring us to check dates. Phone and email work just as well if a visit does not suit.
