What we do for you

You only need to transfer a property a
few times — we do it every day.

Most people only buy or sell a property a handful of times in their lives. That’s why it helps to have an
expert on your side — someone who knows exactly what’s needed, when, and why. We don’t
overwhelm you with legal jargon. We simplify the process and guide you from start to finish.

Review The Sale Agreement.

We make sure your contract protects you.

Your conveyancer checks the Offer to Purchase to ensure all terms are correct, legally sound, and in your best interest — before you sign anything.

Run Legal Checks on the Property.

We uncover any issues before they delay your sale.
We perform title deed checks and confirm there are no legal problems tied to the property — so you don’t face unexpected delays or legal risks.

Secure All Required Clearances.

We handle all certificates and paperwork.
We obtain clearance certificates from the municipality and other bodies to prove your rates, taxes, and levies are fully paid — a key step before transfer.

Draft & Lodge Transfer Documents.

We prepare all legal documents and get them registered.
From drafting transfer papers to lodging at the Deeds Office, we manage every legal step until your property is officially transferred — and you’re paid.

Manage All Payments & Proceeds.

We calculate your costs and ensure you’re paid out.

We perform title deed checks and confirm there are no legal problems tied to the property — so you don’t face unexpected delays or legal risks.

You’ll never be left guessing what you’re paying for.

We provide an upfront fixed quote before we begin. No hidden charges, no extra admin fees, no nasty surprises when your sale wraps up.

PROACTIVE UPDATES, ALWAYS

No chasing for updates — you’ll always know where things stand.

We believe communication is everything. That’s why we keep you updated at every step, before you have to ask — with clear next steps, honest timelines, and fast responses when you need answers.

Owner, Launch Digital

This is the second property I’ve sold using CDT, and I wouldn’t use anyone else!

The transfer process is never simple, but Cari and her team made it feel that way. They simplified every step without overwhelming us, and were always one step ahead with clear, proactive updates. I never had to chase for information or wonder what was happening. Their pricing was completely fair — especially considering how much they handled on our behalf. The service felt personal, professional, and genuinely focused on getting things done right. If you’re selling a property and want it done properly, this is the team you want in your corner.

We simplify the property transfer process.

The seller instructs us once the offer to purchase is signed.

Once the seller and the buyer have signed the Offer to Purchase, it’s time to appoint a conveyancer. The seller gets to choose who handles the legal side — and that’s where we come in. Instruct us to manage the transfer and protect your interests from day one.

We gather the required information.

We’ll request a few documents from you upfront (like your ID, proof of residence, and banking details) so we can start preparing the legal work and verifying ownership.

We work with the buyer and their bank.

If the buyer is taking a home loan, their deposit is paid into our trust account and their bank appoints attorneys to register the bond. We also work with your bank if there’s an existing bond to cancel.

We handle the legal admin and clearances.

We draft the transfer documents and coordinate signatures from both parties. Behind the scenes, we obtain municipal clearance certificates and check for outstanding rates, levies, and taxes to ensure your property is ready to transfer.

We lodge the transfer at the Deeds Office

Once everything is ready, we lodge the documents at the Deeds Office. Registration usually takes 8–10 working days. This is when the property officially changes ownership.

You get paid, and the sale is complete.

Once registration is confirmed, the buyer’s bank releases funds. We pay out your proceeds, settle any remaining costs (like agent fees or bond cancellations), and deliver the title deed to the bank or new owner.

Transferring a property shouldn’t be the
hardest part of buying or selling.

finish — proactively pushing every party, sending regular updates, and ensuring your sale goes through
on time, with zero surprises.
