Fixed-Fee Conveyancing
Many solicitors in our network offer fixed-fee quotes for routine transactions, with government charges and disbursements confirmed separately in writing.
How the conveyancing works in Queensland
One of the most common questions Brisbane buyers and sellers ask is simply: what will the legal side cost? Fixed-fee conveyancing answers that by setting the professional fee for a routine matter up front, so you are not left guessing. Brisbane Conveyancers is a referral service, not a law firm, and many of the Queensland Law Society-member solicitors in our network offer fixed-fee quotes for standard transactions.
A fixed-fee quote covers the solicitor's standard professional work on a routine conveyance: reviewing the contract, running the title and property searches, calculating transfer duty, liaising with the lender and the other side, and managing settlement through PEXA, the online platform used to lodge documents and transfer ownership. The value of fixed-fee pricing is certainty; you know the professional fee before you engage the firm.
What a fixed fee does not include matters just as much as what it does. Government charges, search fees, transfer duty (the Queensland state tax on a property purchase, formerly stamp duty) and other disbursements (third-party costs the solicitor pays on your behalf, such as searches, certificates and registration) are additional and vary by property. A reputable fixed-fee quote sets these out separately and in writing, so there are no surprises at settlement. Be wary of any quote that promises no extra costs without explaining how disbursements are handled, because those costs are real and are paid to third parties.
Fixed-fee conveyancing suits straightforward residential purchases and sales, including first home buyers, owner-occupiers and investors, where the transaction follows a standard path. More complex matters, such as commercial property or unusual contracts, are often quoted on their specifics rather than a single fixed fee, because the work varies. The solicitor will tell you which applies to your situation.
Because we are a referral network, we never set or charge the fee ourselves. We connect you with a solicitor who quotes their own fixed fee in writing, and you engage that firm directly. That keeps the relationship and the advice between you and a qualified solicitor.
If you want a clear, fixed-fee quote for a routine Brisbane conveyance, share a few details and we will connect you with a Queensland Law Society-member solicitor, usually within one business day, with the professional fee and the separate disbursements set out plainly.
