Transfer of Land (TOL)

Please ensure the TOL document is prepared as soon as possible, preferably at the time of workspace creation, or at least 5 business days prior to settlement

Loan Proceeds will be finalised and confirmed by Galilee when the loan funds are received in our Trust Account

Note: Late receipt of executed loan and mortgage documents, supporting documents and satisfying pre-settlement conditions can impact this timeframe.

Shortfall of Funds

Galilee may hold authority to debit a borrowers account for shortfall funds depending on the lender.

• ME Bank – only existing ME Bank accounts
