Now’s the time to confirm
your finance with the
lender. Most banks will ask
you for more information
about the property and
require proof that you’ve
arranged insurance
before settlement.

With some methods of sale,
you can make a conditional offer, such as the offer
being subject to a property inspection report or
finance. Ask your lawyer for advice.

Plan for
settlement day
Settling and
moving in
A number of
things need to
happen before
settlement day,
such as a
pre-settlement
inspection and
ensuring your
finances and
insurance are
in place.
Settle on settlement day
The big day has arrived! Many things need to happen
in sequence between your lawyer, the seller’s lawyer
and the banks before the property becomes yours.
This can take time, and you may not get the keys
until late in the day. It’s a good idea to plan to move
in the day after settlement day.
