The process of placing an offer and having it accepted is an entire process in itself. We recommend you do the following:
• When placing an offer, put down your best offer as the Agent doesn’t always comeback to you to ask if you want to change your offer.
• Talk to a Broker before putting an offer down. They can indicate your likelihood of success in a loan application if you don’t have a Pre-Approval. We work with and can recommend Aaron Latter (0414 651 101) and Sunny McKinven (0401876 558) of Mortgage Choice Earlville
Each property is different as well as your expectations for the home. The best thing to do is give us a
quick buzz to discuss the property.

The standard searches are Rates, Water & Land Tax. If the property has improvements such as a patio extension or new car port, a Final Certificate of Occupancy can be ordered to ensure they are Council approved.
If there are solar panels we will conduct a Personal Security Register Search to ensure they are fully paid off.

Electronic Settlements occur online using PEXA. Electronic settlements save all parties time in
ensuring the settlement process is as smooth as possible as there are no physical documents or
people needed to handle those documents. This saves time and money. The bank also prefers this as they can verify your loan documents and have funds ready for settlement within 1 business day after receiving your signed loan documents.
The cost to settle electronically is $123.97, this is paid at settlement to PEXA. This cost compared to the amount of time saved is well worth it.
Paper Settlements as the name suggests, involves more paperwork for you to sign and far more
liaising with the banks. The process involves more people to be physically involved in the process. As a result paper settlement incur high loan processing fees as people are need to physically handle the process.
