It’s one of the most common questions we’re asked — and the honest answer is:
👉 it depends.

No two property transactions are the same, and conveyancing costs can vary depending on:

• The type of property
• Whether you’re buying, selling, or transferring ownership
• The complexity of the transaction
• Any additional issues that may arise along the way

But when it comes to legal services, price is only part of the picture.

What really matters is clarity — understanding what’s included, what’s not, and having confidence that your matter is being handled properly from start to finish.

The lowest quote isn’t always the best value if it comes with hidden costs or limited support when you need it most.

At Mason Property Law, we believe in clear, upfront pricing and open communication, so you can move forward with certainty.

If you’d like a tailored quote or have questions about your property matter, feel free to get in touch — we’re here to help.

One of the most common questions we hear is “When should I contact a conveyancer?”

The answer — earlier than you think.

Whether you’re buying, selling, or transferring property, getting advise early can help identify risks, avoid delays, and keep your transaction on track.

If a property decision is on your horizon, we’re here to help — before any contracts are signed.

✨ How long does settlement take? ✨

The standard settlement period is usually 30, 60 or 90 days but it can be negotiated between the buyer and seller, and the agreed time frame will always be set out in your contract.

Settlements are conducted electronically through PEXA (Property Exchange Australia), which means:

🏠 Faster processing (settlement completed within 30 minutes of starting)
🏠 Real‑time updates throughout the process
🏠 Secure, paperless transactions for your peace of mind

You’ll be kept informed every step of the way to ensure a smooth, stress‑free settlement — whether you're buying or selling.

Many people think estate planning begins and ends with a Will — but effective planning also considers:

• Powers of Attorney (medical & financial)
• Appointment of Medical Decision-Makers
• Testamentary Trusts (for more complex estates)

These documents help protect your interests — not just after you’re gone, but while you're still here.

If you're buying or selling property, it's the perfect time to get your estate planning sorted.

Our team can guide you through the process with care and practicality.

Thinking of subdividing your land?

Subdividing can unlock significant value — but it’s rarely a simple process. From council approvals to planning permits and title registration, the right legal guidance early can help you avoid costly delays and mistakes.

We work closely with surveyors, councils, and Land Use Victoria to help ensure your subdivision is structured correctly from the start.

Whether it’s your first project or an addition to your investment portfolio, our team is here to guide you every step of the way.
