Description:
Pre-Settlement Woes
The weeks, days and sometimes hours leading up to a scheduled settlement can be some of the most traumatic for Conveyancers. In this session Tony Cahill will discuss some of the common pressure points including
- Damage / destruction between exchange and completion (including the passing of risk legislation)
- No cooperation from another party in the workspace
- When "final" (?) inspections turn bad
- The expected items aren't there but unexpected items are
- Judicial commentary on what constitutes vacant possession
- Final searches in the age of eConveyancing
- What can be done when the scheduled settlement is time critical (including claims for compensation - off the plan and otherwise)
