Today, 11 October 2021, new changes to the land titles system in NSW will be introduced that will transition NSW away from paper-based processes.
Existing Title Deeds will be cancelled and new Title Deeds will no longer be issued.

Introducing Chloe!
Chloe joined Conveyancing Services in May as our full time Administration Assistant. She is currently studying to obtain a Certificate 3 in Business Administration.
We are so grateful that she joined our team!

Cessation Day
The Registrar General of NSW has declared that 11 October 2021 is the day on which all certificates of title (CTs) will be abolished, known as ‘cessation day’.
By order under section 33AAA of the Real Property Act 1900, from cessation day all current CTs have no legal effect and the Registrar General will no longer issue CTs for any reason.
24.6.21
New South Wales has experienced strong gains in property sales up 26% from this time last year!
24.5.21
In line with the NSW Government’s commitment to transition to 100% eConveyancing, the Real Property Amendment (Certificates of Title) Bill 2021 includes a proposal to abolish certificates of title (CTs).
The Bill passed the NSW Parliament on Tuesday 11 May 2021, with plans to completely remove paper titles by the end of 2021.
Existing CTs will be cancelled and CTs will no longer be issued.
With the passing of the Bill, eConveyancing will soon be the only method of conveyancing matters being settled.
Removing paper CTs is the final step in creating a seamless digital conveyancing environment. A digital land titles system is faster and more efficient and accurate.
Paper CTs of title are also easily lost, with around 4,500 replacement applications each year (costing the owners up to $500.00 each).
Benefits of the new system will include:-
• This step will strengthen and future-proof the system in NSW.
• Reducing the risk of settlement delays due to removing the need for paper CTs to settle property transactions or register dealings.
• Once paper CTs are abolished they will no longer be a legal document.
• Citizens holding CTs can keep the CT – there is no obligation to hand it in or destroy it.
The Bill allows the NSW Government to abolish CTs later this year.
21.5.21

Well done to all our staff for learning and growing with this new technology!

Today we had a little party to celebrate being Agents of the Quarter with Sai Global.
5.9.17
Congratulations Teddy! Winner of "I would walk 5000 Miles"
Agent of the Quarter which recognises those who have gone above and beyond SAI's expectations.
"In July Conveyancing Services had their usual volume of work but neither us or them knew what the day had installed for all of us. As it sometimes happens we experienced issues in being able to generate cheques via one of our client’s branch network. Daniel from Conveyancing Services pulled out all stops and went to three branches before being able to get the cheques. His “never say die” attitude saw him collect cheques in time and the matter resulted in a satisfied customer moving into their home. All in all he spent an hour driving between venues to make it happen. Our clients and us, are appreciative that such drive to “make it happen” exist out there with our agent network.
To Conveyancing Services and Daniel thank you!"

Tonight I was presented with a medal for being a Finalist for the Newcastle Herald Hunter Water - Hunter Hero Awards.
I missed the actual presentation because I had a client call at 5pm who was in a race with another buyer to secure a property, so I stayed and we were able to help him buy his dream house.
Going above and beyond for clients is how we have made it through 30 years of business, and that's the reason we were getting the award so it seemed fitting.
A huge congratulations to all the very worthy finalists and well done to the winner Geraldine Moran who established Centre For Hope which gives disadvantaged young people strategies to deal with adversities.

Today we completed our first electronic settlement on PEXA!
I can't honestly say it was as smooth as I would have liked, the Land Titles Offices servers were down so the time had to be pushed back 3 times and eventually settled at 5.15pm.
Unfortunately new technology often has some hiccups, but it takes people being willing to be the early adopters to help 'iron out the kinks' and get it perfect, and we are happy to be involved in that, as it is surely the way of the future.

About 1/3 of all aboriginal children born in Australia each year (6000) do not register their births or obtain birth certificates.
Without a birth certificate, people face lifelong struggles to access mainstream services like getting into school, getting a drivers licence, obtaining bank accounts, and buying a house.
The Pathfinders National Aboriginal Birth Certificate (PNABC) Program provides free birth certificates to aboriginal people. You can find out about the upcoming regional days, or if you are a Justice of the Peace how you can help on the link below.

How amazing are these recent kind words from a client! So happy to hear our staff recognised for their awesome work. Well done Kat ~ I couldn't agree more!
And so happy to hear such great news for our client!
"Hello Natalie
I just wanted to say a HUGE thank you to your office for all your assistance in the purchase of the above property. I was a little nervous all along that something might go wrong and I was assured by yourself and Kat at every melt down I had that all would be ok. And all was.
I would like you to give a special thank you to Kat. She went above and beyond what I would assume is her usual job description when we did run into some challenges.
I work in the customer service and sales industry and I know how painful the general public can be, she at no time made me feel ridiculous when I was having a melt down, she always assured me when she could. She is a rare find.
We picked up the keys this morning and went to have a look through together, oh and we got engaged this morning too. YAY!
Thanks again".

How old were you when you bought your last property?
We have a client who is buying a home at the sweet age of 90 years old!

Have you looked at buying a property lately that said "offers over" an amount, just to find that it sells for $50k more than that amount!
New legislation is being introduced from January where agents are not allowed to use "offers over" or "offers above" in their marketing.
Hopefully this will stop agents who deliberately underquote expected sale prices to buyers.

"When you are at your worst, that is when I will be at my best" wise words courtesy of Shannan Ponton
We had a client whose property was badly damaged in the April Super Storms in Newcastle, and after a lot of negotiation, we are so happy for her that settlement has finally taken place today!
She is so sweet, that even after a very stressful matter she took the time to write us these kind words:
"My conveyancing settlement became unusual and the staff were very knowledgeable and gave good advice. They put my needs first at all times"
