Electronic conveyancing, or e-Conveyancing, is the future of conveyancing transactions and settlements. At Mr Conveyancer, we are committed to embracing innovation and enhancing our service to clients through the use of PEXA, Australia’s leading e-conveyancing network.
Understanding PEXA
PEXA, which stands for Property Exchange Australia, is an online platform that enables users to complete conveyancing settlements and lodge documents electronically. This platform has been designed to streamline the conveyancing process, making it faster, more efficient, and less prone to errors.
The Benefits of Using PEXA
One of the biggest advantages of using PEXA is the reduction of paperwork. With e-conveyancing, there’s no need for physical documents, which can be messy and time-consuming. PEXA’s online document checks also help to reduce the risk of mistakes, ensuring that the process is accurate and reliable.
Another benefit of using PEXA is the speed at which settlements can be completed. In the past, buyers and sellers had to wait for checks to clear, but with e-conveyancing, digital payments can be made instantly, allowing for a faster settlement process.
Using PEXA can save you money. By shifting the conveyancing process online, there are fewer expenses associated with purchasing or selling a property. Additionally, with PEXA’s real-time tracking, buyers and sellers can stay up-to-date with the progress of their property settlement via a mobile app, which features a personalised settlement checklist and instant alerts via SMS or email.
In addition to the advantages mentioned earlier, electronic conveyancing can also provide greater security for buyers and sellers. With PEXA, all parties involved in the settlement process can access and share information in real-time, providing greater transparency and reducing the risk of fraud or errors.
Moreover, the platform is also designed to reduce the risk of errors and ensure that all documents are correct and up-to-date. This is particularly important when it comes to property transactions, as even a small mistake can have significant consequences. By using PEXA, buyers and sellers can be confident that their conveyancing settlement is accurate and legally binding.
PEXA also offers a range of other features that can make the conveyancing process more convenient and efficient. For example, users can access a range of online tools and resources, including property reports, title searches, and other important information. These tools can help buyers and sellers make more informed decisions and streamline the conveyancing process.
In addition, PEXA also offers a range of integrations with other third-party platforms and services, such as banking and insurance providers. This can further simplify the conveyancing process and make it easier for buyers and sellers to manage their finances and insurance requirements.
How much does PEXA cost?
In PEXA, each party (transferor and transferee) pays a PEXA fee, currently $123.97 per title, and subject to change (The current PEXA fees can be located here). Different transactions cost different amounts. The PEXA fee covers the following services: Pre-population of Land Registry data, to remove the need for re-keying. Lodgment verification checks, to provide greater certainty that documents will be lodged successfully.
