Fixed fees: residential conveyancing $1,850 + GST (purchase or sale), commercial from $2,500 + GST, property transfers from $1,500 + GST. Disbursements (Lane Cove Council certificates, title search, PEXA settlement fee) are charged at cost and itemised in your written quote — no hidden extras and no per-call charges.
Lane Cove currently has a house price above $3.0 million. Prices vary substantially by street, dwelling type, condition, and aspect — and Lower North Shore markets can move quickly. We strongly recommend a written contract review before signing, comparing the contract terms against typical Lower North Shore clauses we negotiate every week.
Lane Cove is in the Lane Cove Council LGA. The Section 10.7 (formerly 149) planning certificate, council rates notice, and zoning information are issued by Lane Cove Council. We obtain all relevant council searches and review them as part of contract review — flagging zoning, heritage, flood, and bushfire overlays.
Standard NSW residential settlement is 42 days from exchange. Cash buyers can settle in 14–21 days. Off-the-plan and house-and-land contracts in Lower North Shore have deferred settlement (typically 12–24 months). We coordinate the bank, the seller's representative, and PEXA to deliver smooth settlement on the agreed date.
Many Lane Cove properties sit within a Heritage Conservation Area (HCA) under the Lane Cove Council Local Environmental Plan, or are individually heritage-listed. Heritage controls restrict demolition, alterations to street-facing facades, window changes, and sometimes paint colours. We obtain the Section 10.7 certificate and check the LEP heritage schedule before you exchange.
Older Lane Cove strata schemes often face significant remedial works — concrete cancer, waterproofing, lift replacement, or fire safety upgrades — leading to $20K–$100K+ special levies. We strongly recommend ordering a professional strata report (around $250–$350) and we review it as part of contract review, flagging any planned works, special levies, or sinking fund shortfalls.
