Items that are not physically attached, such as furniture, artwork, and kitchen utensils, are not automatically included in the purchase unless stated in the contract. These are called chattels. Items permanently fixed to the property, such as curtains, light fixtures, and solar panels, are considered fixtures and are included unless otherwise specified.

How much does conveyancing cost in QLD?

Bush to Beach Legal offer fixed-fee conveyancing for clients buying or selling property. Fees vary between buying and selling, and additional charges may include title searches, council and water rate searches, and land tax searches, which can vary based on the property location and local council.

If I am buying and selling, can I settle on different days?

Licensed conveyancers specialise in property law but cannot handle complex legal issues; all conveyancing is signed off by a qualified solicitor.
