Does anyone have any thoughts on using a “cheap” conveyancer? When I say cheap I mean the companies that do nothing but conveyancing and offer things like, “best rates” “match any quote” etc. Examples include oz property law and go go conveyancing.
I’m tempted to use one of these to purchase a cheap IP apartment as they are approx half the price! ($900 compared to $1700+)
Any thoughts or even recommendations?

Hi Jodes
The conveyancers I use (and recommend to my clients) are based in Canberra but carry out conveyancing in NSW. They are very good – and surprisingly not that expensive – a client of mine was quoted $950 today. Feel free to give them a try http://www.rsk.com.au/common/home.aspx
Cheers

Why risk it?
A property is a huge expense and a one off expenses.

Check them closely – here in Tassie there is a specialised conveyancing firm advertising 'cheaper' costs but they are actually more expensive than my solicitor!

Do you want 'cheap' or do you want proficient?
Sometimes the two are not mutually compatible.
For the life of me I just cannot understand people wanting to 'save a few bucks' when there are 100's of thousands of dollars involved.
