Hi Community,

As a result, the last available settlement timeslot in New South Wales will be 5:30pm AEST (reduced from 6:30pm).

 

Additionally, for our members in WA, you will now have an extra hour to re-book settlements, with the cut-off time returning to 2pm AWST (from 1pm).

 

Breakdown of settlement hour changes and impacted states from Sunday 4 April 2021 to Friday 1 October 2021:

PEXA is getting a little makeover.

Over the coming months, you will notice a few little upgrades to the PEXA look and feel, including our logo. These changes across all your PEXA experiences (website, platform, social media, emails and more) were made to reflect our partnership with you and all that comes with it; collaboration, innovation and positive impact.  

 

Our look and feel has been elevated to better reflect everything you expect from PEXA; from platform reliability to unwavering support from your PEXA representative and support teams.  

 

We can’t wait to share these little changes with you.  Reach out to your PEXA representative if you’d like to hear more.

A 10 year milestone for industry

A 10 year milestone for industry

This year, thanks to the collaboration, feedback and leadership of our entire industry, PEXA turns 10.

I’d like to take this opportunity to express my gratitude to each and every one of you, our members. Your contributions throughout this journey have made the property exchange experience what it is today and continue to shape what it will be in the future.

Together, industry has completed more than six million property transactions on PEXA, valued at $1+ trillion – assisting 20,000 families settle their homes online, weekly. Your feedback and collaboration have resulted in close to 4,000 enhancements to the PEXA Exchange platform since 2015 and the creation of additional value-add services for our industry such as PEXA Key, PEXA Plus, PEXA Projects and more.

To celebrate this momentous occasion, we looked back on some of our members’ highlights and notable moments – and what better place to start than at the beginning.

 

The first transaction

Pioneering digital settlements for our industry, Carolyn Booth, Smart Choice Conveyancing, and Paul Denny, Paul Denny Conveyancing, completed the first electronic transfer transaction on PEXA in 2014. We caught up with Paul and Carolyn to hear their account of this landmark transaction – kick-starting a digital transformation like no other.

 

 

A solution for everyone

Our members are incredibly special. Together, we’ve been able to drive change, innovate, and provide opportunities that weren’t possible 10 years ago. And on this journey, we’ve come across some truly remarkable stories. Meet Howard, now into his 80s, a trailblazing Victorian conveyancer, who adapted to the industry’s digitisation and today settles property online, from his own home.

 

 

Flexibility and transformation

Our members are at the heart of everything we do. We are always proud to hear how they’re using PEXA to drive positive change. From time to time, we hear stories that stop us in our tracks – stories that are truly remarkable. We wanted to share with you a personal story from Carol Taylor, a practitioner from the Gold Coast. We are so proud to have Carol as one of our members, and fortunate to be part of her extraordinary journey.

 

 

Settle from anywhere

Together, we built a world-first prop-tech solution, that has enabled people to ‘settle from anywhere’. That was truly taken to the next level when PEXA member, Mark Blair, decided he would take his laptop and digital certificate to Mount Everest. Hear from Mark as he shares his settlement experience from the skies.

 

 

Reliability during life’s unexpected moments

Buying and selling your property are some of life’s biggest moments. Together, we revolutionised the settlement process, providing clarity, security and peace of mind for industry. We asked Frances McCauley at Suncorp to share a unique story with us – how, through the power of technology, she was able to help a 37-week pregnant mother urgently settle her property, all in one day.

 

 

Accelerated transformation to digital settlements

And lastly, we wanted to finish on a story that has particular significance in 2020. In the face of a global pandemic, we were able to provide our members with the tools and support to keep their businesses open – to continue to settle property for Australians. We caught up with South Australia’s Ben McDonald from Fentons Conveyancing to hear their story.

 

 

We will be sharing these wonderful stories, along with some key industry milestones on our social media channels to showcase these moments that have inspired us over the past decade. We would love for you to share them with your audience and clients and reflect upon what our collaboration together has meant to you.

 

Once again, thank you.

Kind regards

Lisa

FY21 pricing | PEXA fees unchanged and Land Registry updates

Hi Community,

 

As you’re aware, the annual CPI fee increase for PEXA’s online lodgement and financial settlement service typically comes into effect on 1 July.

 

However, as previously announced, in light of current circumstances, PEXA fees will not increase at the beginning of the financial year – instead, the current pricing schedule will remain effective until January 2021.

 

As is usual, any future price adjustment will be in line with the Model Operating Requirements which are set and governed by ARNECC and will be calculated based on the Consumer Price Index for March 2020 (ABS 6410.0).

 

Additionally, fees for each of the Land Registries have been updated, with any revisions taking effect from 1 July 2020.

This functionality will be released in two phases, commencing 11 May 2020.

 

From 11 May 2020, PEXA Subscribers will be able to lodge paper Real Property Act dealings with a Land Title Reference through the COVID-19 Residual Lodgement via the PEXA Platform.

 

From 25 May 2020, paper documents which don’t have a Real Property Act Land Title Reference or where the Land Title is not valid for electronic lodgement in the PEXA Platform, will be able to be lodged through the PEXA Platform using a prescribed Title Reference.

On 8 June, the Queen’s Birthday Holiday in New South Wales, Victoria and South Australia, financial settlement is not available for all states. This is due to the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA)'s closure. Lodgement is still available in Western Australia, New South Wales, Victoria and Queensland.

 

To help you prepare for the holiday period, planned outages and more, please refer to Calendar: Releases, Planned Outages & Public Holidays

Support and guidance for PEXA members settling remotely

Tips, tricks and advice for PEXA members settling digitally during the current COVID-19 situation

 

Hi Community,

 

As the global Coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak continues to evolve, I wanted to reassure you that PEXA stands firmly with you, the broader community and our citizens in delivering a safe, efficient and reliable property settlement experience.
 
This cannot be underestimated as we face unprecedented global social and economic dislocation.
 
In support of our community, effective this week all PEXA teams began working remotely and face-to-face member meetings were replaced with a virtual solution, ensuring we assist in flattening the curve. I’m pleased to report that this has been a positive transition with no impact to members and the wider community in the property settlement process. As PEXA is a web-based platform, members can be confident their property transactions will continue uninterrupted.
 
This is a new experience for many of us and we’re here to assist wherever we can, beginning with the following tips from industry, including our regulator, ARNECC:

 

Verification of Identity (VOI) & Client Authorisation Form (CAF)

ARNECC has released its statement for completing VOIs and CAFs during COVID-19, noting face-to-face verification is not mandatory with ARNECC stating “Subscribers might like to consider using video technology as part of the verification of identity process”. Click here to read ARNECC’s full statement.

Please also note that VOI appointments remain available via Australia Post, ZipID and ID Secure. 

 

PEXA Key

While you’re working remotely and limiting face-to-face client meetings, bank and trust account details can be communicated safely via the free PEXA Key app, removing the need to use email, mitigating any risk of succumbing to email phishing attacks. 

It provides your business with an extra layer of security when communicating critical bank and trust details while also allowing homebuyers and sellers to track their settlement via their phone. We are no doubt all hearing and reading about the increasing prevalence of cyber phishing attacks worldwide and we encourage you to use tools like PEXA Key to keep client property transactions safe. 

 

Digital Certificates – are you using a different computer or laptop as a result of remote working? 

If you’re using a new or different laptop to sign in PEXA, you will need to download and install the digital signing software. Members using Mac computers, please note that the signing software is not yet compatible with their latest operating system, Catalina. For other Mac operating systems, please follow the instructions in this link.

Please remember to keep your Digital Certificate stored safely when not in use.

 

Support Services – we’re here to help 

While there is so much uncertainty at the moment, we’re committed to being that little bit of stability in your day. Here are some of the ways we can help:

  • Help Centre: Our online Help Centre is fully stocked with articles, help cards, webinars, videos, simulators and more that can help you transact online.
  • Support Centre: Our friendly support staff are available on national business days from 8.30am – 8.00pm AEST/DT. They can be contacted by phone on 1300 084 515 or email at support@pexa.com.au.
  • Face-to-[virtual]Face Support: Our face-to-face team can now assist you virtually. Using Skype, WebEx and Team Viewer, our PEXA Direct Specialists and PEXA Partners remain available for appointments to help your business. Contact us at practitioner@pexa.com.au if you have any queries or to book an appointment.

We look forward to working with you over the coming weeks, as together we continue delivering this important service to Australian businesses and citizens.  

Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions and stay safe.
