Purchasing property is often an exciting time. Having a lawyer who is local and knows the region can assist with having the legal work associated with your property purchase completed when and where it suits you best.

Here are some examples of how having a local lawyer can assist:

  1. Verification of Identity (VOI) and Client Authorisation form – these are required to comply with the PEXA (electronic workspace) and titles office requirements and should be completed as soon as possible and as soon as you receive a request to do so. This can be done by appointment at any Coulter Legal office.
  2. Pre-settlement – any last-minute documents or items to be attended to can be done by appointment at any Coulter Legal office. Things like where to drop keys or garage remotes off if there is no agent involved, or in circumstances where the property has been damaged and the vendor needs to provide evidence of repairs, or other miscellaneous matters such as alarm codes, instruction booklets, warranties that may be held by us for the most appropriate person to pick up.
