Title Transfer

Lawlab manages the legal steps involved in transferring property ownership to ensure all documents are prepared and lodged correctly, helping make the process smooth and compliant.

Transfer of Property Title

A transfer of title is the legal process of changing ownership of a property from one person, or entity, to another. This usually happens when a property is bought or sold, but it can also occur when property is gifted, transferred between family members, or moved into or out of a trust or company.

During a title transfer, the ownership details recorded with the land registry or titles office are updated so the new owner is officially recognised.

When a Title Transfer May Be Needed

A property title may need to be transferred, outside of a sale or purchase, when:

Property is gifted to a family member
Ownership changes after a relationship breakdown
Property is transferred as part of a deceased estate
Ownership is moved into or out of a trust, company, or SMSF

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The experience Lawlab offers is excellent. To get started, using the Rundl platform is a breeze and is backed up by great service if you need to call to clarify anything.

The process of buying a property can move quick, so having someone assigned to your case and undertaking a contract review to protect your interests and alert you to any risks whilst considering a property is invaluable. Once comfortable, whether that is placing an offer based off the contract or during a cooling off period, the conveyancing experience is smooth and easy.

Communication is clear receiving notifications by email alerting you to log in to Rundl and view messages on your case. Whether it is uploading or downloading documents, the process is simple and there are guides to help you understand the conveyancing process. Lawlab also provide advice to protect your fianancial safety given the need to exchange large amounts of money to a real estate agent or Lawlab themselves, plus insurance considerations on acceptance of an offer.

Once settlement is complete, nice to get a phonecall advising of the successful settlement, documents showing all the transactions involved etc.

Thanks for providing a smooth and simple professional experience electronically and via the people involved.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a fantastic experience working with Samuel Lim and the team at Lawlab. From start to finish Samuel was responsive, professional, and incredibly supportive throughout the entire process.
His clear communication and attention to detail made everything feel smooth and well-managed, especially leading up to settlement. We always felt informed and confident knowing Samuel was handling everything on our behalf.
We’re truly grateful for his guidance and would highly recommend Samuel and Lawlab to anyone looking for a reliable and efficient conveyancing team.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Wynona is a powerhouse – She stopped a bully on settlement day!⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
This is my second business property sale with Lawlab Melbourne, and I cannot recommend Wynona enough. While the process is usually smooth, you really learn the value of your conveyancer when things go wrong.
On the morning of settlement (at 7:30 AM!), the purchaser turned into a bully. He was on the property prematurely and tried to force a $1,000 price reduction over a missing piece of scrap metal. I was incredibly stressed, but Wynona stepped in immediately. She consulted his solicitor, had the purchaser removed from the property for trespassing, and ensured settlement went through on our terms.
If you want a conveyancer who will actually fight for you and protect you from unreasonable tactics, ask for Wynona. She turned a nightmare morning into a successful sale. Thank you!
