A step-by-step guide to selling property in Victoria
- Engage a Conveyancer to prepare your sale documents and a Real Estate Agent to sell your property.
- Your conveyancer will prepare a Vendor Statement for you to sign and provide to your Estate Agent to forward to potential purchasers.
- Once you have an offer to purchase you may sign the Contract of Sale. The Real Estate Agents office will provide you with a copy of the signed Contract of Sale and Vendor Statement.
- Your Conveyancer will send you a letter with instructions on your sale and discharging any mortgage over the property. You will be asked to complete a Verification of Identity and a Client Authorisation form.
- The purchaser must advise once the contract is unconditional, if the contract is subject to any conditions.
- Deposits paid by a purchaser are held in a trust account until settlement. If you require access to your deposit money before settlement, you may request a Section 27 Deposit Release to be arranged.
- You will be required to sign a State Revenue Office Duties Online Form that your conveyancer will prepare and email to you.
- Approximately a week before settlement the purchasers representative will send a Statement of Adjustments for your approval. Your Conveyancer will check the figures on your behalf.
- Your Conveyancer will prepare a Settlement Statement with a breakdown of funds required at settlement and you will be asked to provide your bank account details for any excess/shortfall funds at settlement.
- The purchaser will complete a final inspection 7 days prior to settlement. You must ensure the house is available for viewing to the purchaser during this time. The Agent will facilitate this process.
- Settlement Day. Ensure you have provided the Agent with all keys to the property at or before settlement. Your conveyancer will advise you once settlement is complete.
- Your conveyancer will notify Council, Water Authorities and any Owners Corporation of your sale. You must disconnect telephone, internet, gas, electricity and any insurance over the property.
- Your conveyancer will send you a final Settlement Statement after settlement.
