We haven't spoke to anyone from Crownland but the real estate agent. Our solicitor said to us that everything will be done online. Is this common nowadays? I thought we would have actually need to visit the developers office to sign contracts etc. We just feel a little uncomfortable to transact everything online and to pay the deposit not knowing if everything is legit. BTW the solicitor we had was referred by the real estate agent so not sure if he's legit at all. Any advise for a noob first home buyers like us? Thanks That seems right for what the solicitor said in regards to online settlement. I bought the land in Feb 2020, titled in Jul 2020. I had my conveyancer taken of the settlement and was advised that it's online via PEXA these days, including the electronic title, not in the paper anymore. I understand how you feel, uncomfortable transacting everything online. But that is common nowadays. LT Yeah I don't know why I came to a forum. Place is full of wierdos/pedos thought internet may help but I suppose I'll try my luck with someone in person. Cheers. I tried… 0 6786 I work with owner, he/she is my man on the ground and I instruct them when to visit the site and take photos and I have other tools in the bag. 4 15851 I am in the same situation, would you be able to give some insights in to this?
