When undertaking any property and conveyancing work, you want to get it done right the first time - on time. We pride ourselves on ensuring we do it right. We specialise in property transfers, property developments, mortgage bonds and sectionalisations. The process of transferring ownership of a property from an owner/seller to the buyer starts with a sale agreement which is then handed to a specialist attorney for “conveyancing” – conveying ownership from one person to the new buyer. Such an attorney needs an additional qualification as a “Conveyancer”. But what does a Conveyancer do? 1. Secures the funds from the buyer to cover payment of the purchase price (cash, part payment, or mortgage loan). 2. Ensure transfer of ownership on the day of registration and funds to pay the seller are available to be released. 3. Prepares and signs off documents for the change of ownership and drafts new title deeds (Deed of Transfer gets registered in the government Deeds Registry for the area/ Province). 4. Call for and collect any certificates and related costs required to be obtained for transfer (Rates Clearance Levy Clearance, Electrical Clearance, Pest Clearance, or Gas Clearance). 5. Liaise with the Conveyancing attorney appointed by the bank to ensure that the purchase price is split and the portion due to the seller’s bank is paid. Mc Naught & Co are specialists in the field with over 40 years of experience in fighting to get sellers’ and buyers’ properties and mortgage bonds transferred first and fast. You can ask that our firm handle your next sale or purchase and add our name to the agreement
