Coming Soon: Our Conveyancing Services Returning to Melbourne

Melbourne’s property market has always been a magnet for owner‑occupiers, investors and developers, with constant activity across the CBD, inner‑suburbs and growing fringe areas. After previously being licensed to act on Melbourne conveyancing matters in 2019, we are preparing to return to the Victorian market to support clients who have specifically asked us to handle their Melbourne purchases, sales and off‑the‑plan projects. This “coming soon” phase is the perfect time to explain what you can expect when our Melbourne conveyancing services officially relaunch.

Why we’re coming back to Melbourne

Over the past few years, we have acted on hundreds of conveyancing matters across New South Wales and South Australia, including established homes, units, off‑the‑plan purchases, related party transfers and developer work. During that time, many of our existing clients have continued to invest in or move to Melbourne, often asking whether we could again assist with their Victorian property transactions.

We were first licensed for Melbourne conveyancing work in 2019, gaining direct experience with Victoria’s contract structures, disclosure requirements and settlement processes. Demand from our current client base, along with new projects we are working on with developers in and around Melbourne, has been a major driver behind our decision to re‑enter the Victorian market.

How our NSW and SA experience benefits Melbourne clients

Operating across multiple states has given us a clear, practical understanding of how conveyancing rules differ between jurisdictions—and what buyers and sellers actually need from their conveyancer. Our work in NSW and SA has involved:

• Residential purchases and sales (houses, townhouses, units and vacant land)

• Off‑the‑plan apartments and house‑and‑land packages in growth corridors

• Related party transfers between family members, spouses and trusts

• Interstate moves where a client sells in one state and buys in another

This multi‑state perspective is particularly useful for Melbourne clients who are:

• Selling in NSW or SA and buying in Victoria

• Melbourne‑based investors purchasing in other states

• Developers running projects across more than one jurisdiction

When our Melbourne licence is active again, we will be able to apply this experience directly to Victorian contracts and settlements, helping clients coordinate transactions that span more than one state without losing sight of local details.

What our Melbourne conveyancing services will cover

When we are fully operational again in Victoria, our Melbourne conveyancing services are expected to include:

• Buying residential property in Melbourne (houses, units, townhouses)

• Selling residential property in Melbourne and surrounding suburbs

• Off‑the‑plan apartment and townhouse purchases

• House‑and‑land packages in Melbourne growth corridors

• Investor and developer work, including multiple lots and staged projects

• Related party transfers and title changes, handled in coordination with Victorian professionals such as accountants and family lawyers

At each stage, the focus remains the same as in our NSW and SA work: clear explanations, careful contract review, and proactive communication with agents, lenders and other advisors.

Why it helps to use a conveyancer who understands interstate moves

Many clients don’t just move across town—they move across state borders. Selling in Adelaide and buying in Melbourne, or selling in Western Sydney and moving to a Melbourne growth suburb, introduces extra complexity around timing, finance and logistics. Having a conveyancer who understands both sides of the move can make this process much smoother.

We can help you plan realistic settlement dates, manage funds flowing from one sale into another purchase, and make sure that contract conditions in each state align rather than conflict. Once our Melbourne licence is active again, you will be able to work with one practice that can guide you through the entire interstate move, instead of juggling different firms who may not be in regular contact with each other.

What you can do now if you’re planning a Melbourne move

Even before our Melbourne conveyancing services are formally relaunched, there are steps you can take if you are considering a move or investment:

• If you currently own in NSW or SA and plan to sell before buying in Melbourne, speak to us early about your sale timeline and contract strategy.

• If you are talking to developers or agents about upcoming Melbourne projects, we can help you understand the general risks and questions to ask, even before you commit.

• If you have an existing relationship with us from past matters, let us know your indicative timeframe so we can keep you updated on when we will be able to formally act on your Victorian transaction.

As soon as our Melbourne licence is active again, we will update this page and make it clear that we can accept instructions for Victorian conveyancing matters, including CBD and inner‑suburb transactions, off‑the‑plan purchases and developer work.
