You’ll know what we’re doing, why it matters, and what to expect next at every stage.
Residential vs Commercial Conveyancing
Every property deal is different, and the legal steps change depending on what you’re buying or selling.
Residential Conveyancing
Buying or selling a home, unit, or vacant block? We help individuals and families manage the legal side of property sales with confidence and clarity. Ideal for first-home buyers, investors, or those upsizing or downsizing.
Commercial Conveyancing
Buying a commercial space, office, warehouse, or development site? We support business owners and developers with in-depth advice, due diligence, and risk management tailored to more complex transactions. Existing lease? We’ll help review and advise on the key terms too.
If you're unsure which applies, or your situation sits somewhere in between, we're happy to help you work it out.
Legal Expertise When Things Get Messy
When complications arise, having a property lawyer in your corner makes all the difference.
We can step in to handle issues like:
Contract breaches or termination disputes
Title defects or caveats you didn’t know existed
Delays with finance or building approvals
Misleading statements or undisclosed defects
Last-minute changes before settlement
Boundary, zoning, or easement disputes
Unlike conveyancing-only providers, we don’t need to refer you elsewhere. You’ll get legal advice and representation under the same roof, from the same person who’s already across your file.
What to Expect From Start to Settlement
Whether you’re buying or selling, here’s how the process generally unfolds.
01.Contract Signed
The cooling-off period begins (if applicable), and we flag any early action items such as searches or special conditions.
03.Unconditional Stage
We finalise checks on title, rates, and adjustments, and prepare all settlement figures and documentation.
02.Conditional Period
We track finance approval, inspections, and due diligence while keeping in touch with your agent and lender.
04.Settlement Day
We handle the legal exchange of funds and documents, confirm completion, and provide your final report.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
A conveyancing lawyer ensures your property transaction is legally sound and smooth. Their key duties include:
Contract Review & Legal Advice: They review contracts, highlight issues, and provide legal advice to protect your interests.
Negotiation & Drafting: Lawyers negotiate terms and draft special conditions, especially in complex transactions.
Property Searches: Conducting due diligence, including title checks and zoning searches, to identify potential problems.

Dispute Resolution: If complications arise, the lawyer provides legal guidance and resolves disputes.
At Legal Synthesis, our qualified property lawyers handle every step, ensuring you're fully supported.
-
You can use either in Queensland, but the difference is important:
Conveyancers handle the paperwork and lodgements for property transfers, but are limited in the advice that they can give, and can’t represent you in disputes.
Lawyers (especially property lawyers) do everything a conveyancer does and can also provide legal advice, resolve disputes, and act for you if problems arise.
For full peace of mind, your matter at Legal Synthesis is managed by a qualified property lawyer from start to finish.
-
Engage a conveyancing lawyer as early as possible, ideally before signing a contract. This ensures contracts are reviewed, risks flagged, and terms negotiated from the start. If you wait until later, we can still step in, but early involvement gives you the best protection and fewer delays.
-
Yes. Unlike some conveyancing-only providers, we’re a law firm and every matter is managed by a lawyer. If your matter becomes more complex, such as a contract breach, title issue, or dispute, we have the legal expertise to advise and act without handing you off elsewhere.
-
Most standard property settlements in Queensland take around 30 to 60 days, depending on the contract and whether finance or building inspections are involved.
We’ll walk you through the timeline and keep everything on track.
-
Not at all. We work with clients across the Sunshine Coast and beyond using phone, email, and digital signing tools. Whether you’re nearby or interstate, we can manage your conveyancing efficiently and professionally without you needing to visit in person.
-
Absolutely. We offer free initial consultations, and we’re happy to answer your questions without pressure or obligation. It’s about giving you the right information so you can move forward confidently when the time’s right.
