How our fees work
Every matter is charged as a fixed professional fee, agreed before any work begins, plus disbursements passed on at cost. There is no hourly billing.
Fixed fee, quoted upfront
You agree your professional fee before we start. It doesn't change unless the scope of your matter materially changes, and we'll always tell you first.
Priced by state & matter type
Standard, complex, off-the-plan and transfers each have a set professional fee, which varies across NSW, VIC and QLD.
Disbursements at cost
Government charges, searches and stamp duty are passed on at cost, itemised in an estimated range that includes the $99 file management fee.
Contract reviews
Detailed contract reviews are a paid service, charged as below (exclusive of GST). If you go on to instruct Settle Easy for the conveyancing on the reviewed property, we credit $150 back at settlement — so a standard review effectively costs $180.
Standard contract review
48-hour turnaround.
Urgent contract review
24-hour turnaround. Standard residential contracts only.
The $150 settlement credit applies to one review per matter when you proceed to conveyancing with Settle Easy on the reviewed property.
Spring offer: one standard contract review is included at no charge when you accept our conveyancing quote and proceed with Settle Easy. One free review per matter; urgent and off-the-plan reviews remain as priced above.The spring and first home buyer offers apply to buying and selling, not property transfers.
