FAQs
Costs are proportionate to the size of your transaction and the level of work involved. There are many factors that go into this, including the type of land you are buying (for example residential compared to commercial), and the size of the transaction (for example the costs associated with a $3m property will be different to a $30m property).
At Thornton + King we take pride in delivering exceptional value to our clients by providing a premium property law service at a competitive price.
Conveyancing is a complex process which involves numerous parties and requires specialised legal knowledge in countless areas of law, including property, contracts, taxation, litigation and dispute resolution, corporations, trusts, and often even family law and estate law.
The cost of property in Australia has been continuously rising, and so too has the cost of receiving the wrong advice. To receive anything other than the best possible legal advice on your conveyancing transaction, is a risk that you simply cannot afford.
Our lawyers have decades of experience transacting all types of property in New South Wales. Our team of Accredited Specialists in property law are involved in thousands of property transactions each year. To work with one of the best property conveyancing teams in Australia, give us a call or submit an enquiry now.
