Business Processes

Before you can take advantage of the increased efficiency of e-Conveyancing, you may need to make a few simple changes to your business processes.

On this page, you’ll learn how to:

  • Update your contracts of sale.
  • Search for a counterparty on PEXA, or invite them to transact on PEXA.
  • Update your initial client engagement letters.

Contract Preparation

In order to transact electronically, please update your Contract of Sale by either drafting your own special conditions or using the latest contract of sale version in your jurisdiction:

  • VIC: Electronic Conveyancing Special Condition which can be obtained through the Law Institute of Victoria or the REIV
  • WA: Law Society of Western Australia/REIWA Electronic Conveyancing Annexure Special Condition
  • QLD: Contract for Sale of Land which can be obtained through the Queensland Law Society
  • NSW: Contract for Sale of Land which can be obtained through the Law Society of New South Wales
  • SA: You can use any one of the contracts available through REISA, Law Society, AICSA or the Society of Auctioneers and Appraisers, each of which contain e-Conveyancing conditions. 

Engagement with a Counterparty

To confirm if the counterparty for your matter is already transacting on PEXA, you can use the Subscriber Search function in PEXA or alternatively you can use the PEXA Qualifier on the PEXA Website. If the counterparty is not yet transacting on PEXA you can invite them using the Subscriber Search function in PEXA or contact PEXA directly on 1300 084 515. PEXA can assist your counterparty with joining PEXA and transacting the matter electronically.

The initial engagement letter that is sent to the counterparty should be updated to reflect that you would like to transact the matter electronically through PEXA. This could include:

  1. I act for the [Vendor/Purchaser] and note that you act on behalf of the [Vendor/Purchaser] and propose the settlement be completed electronically
  2. I note the 2014 Edition Contract for Sale of land [has/has not] been used and [propose the contract be varied to include an electronic conveyancing Special Condition]

Precedents

The initial engagement letter that is sent to the client should be updated to reflect that you are able to transact the matter electronically through PEXA. This includes incorporating reference to the Client Authorisation Form and the Verification of Identity process.

You should also consider necessary amendments to your engagement letter, including:

  • Outline PEXA fees
  • Request for VOI interview
  • Enclosing Client Authorisation Form (or requesting client attend to sign)
  • Advising client of the Lodgement Override option and your practice’s intention to either select or not select the option (unless the client instructs to the contrary)

Managing PEXA Files

The Subscriber is required to take "reasonable steps" to monitor the usage of systems and activities of their Users.; What constitutes "reasonable steps" may vary depending on the circumstances.; Subscribers are expected to monitor general practice management issues such as setting limits on signing authority, segregation of duties and regular/random file audits etc. In other words, activities which a Subscriber would normally be conducting in any event in the course of general practice management.

 

PEXA Fee Structure

PEXA-registered lawyers and conveyancers pay only per successful transactions. PEXA doesn't charge up-front fees (although you may need to purchase an additional Digital Certificate) or ongoing subscription fees. Charges are based on the type of transaction (e.g. mortgage, transfer etc.). The PEXA fee is separate from the statutory lodgement fees, which are set by each jurisdiction's Land Registry.

The PEXA fees include a number of services including:

  • Lodgement verification checks with the Land Registry
  • Title Activity Checks (TAC) that alert you to recent activity on the title
  • Pre-population of land registry data
  • Electronic disbursement of cleared funds
  • Document creation and lodgement in real-time with the Land Registry
  • Secure digital signature technology
  • Stamp duty verification with the Duty Authority
  • Lodgement gap cover (subject to conditions set out in the Participation Agreement)

PEXA fees are reviewed and updated on an annual basis, in accordance with the PEXA Pricing Policy.

Where a transaction involves financial settlement (for example a Transfer), the PEXA and lodgement fees are automatically added as a line item in the Financial Settlement Schedule. There is no cost if a Workspace is abandoned and the settlement is not completed in PEXA. Where the transaction doesn't involve financial settlement (for example a Caveat), the PEXA fee is debited from your nominated account.

PEXA Fees and Lodgement Fees - FAQs

We've prepared this information to address some common queries about the treatment of fees in relation to PEXA transactions. Specifically:
(i) South Australian lodgement fees being collected by PEXA, not Revnet;
(ii) Reconciliation and adjustment of the Discharge of Mortgage lodgement fee, particularly in South Australia and Western Australia;
(iii) How South Australian practitioners may now account to their purchaser clients in relation to lodgement fees;
(iv) The different treatment of PEXA fees for Financial Institutions (direct debit) and Representative Subscribers representing Financial Institutions (line items).

 

Refer to PEXA’s Pricing Schedule for more details.

 

1. collection of pexa and lodgement fees
The Land Registry Lodgement Fee is collected by PEXA as agent for the relevant Land Registry.
If the PEXA transaction does not involve a Financial Settlement (such as a Caveat or Priority Notice), both the PEXA and Lodgement Fees are direct debited by PEXA from the Subscriber's nominated account (or the Panel Master’s account where the functionality described in section 9 "Bill to instructions"  is applied) following successful lodgement of the Lodgement Case.

If a PEXA Transaction involves a Financial Settlement (such as a Transfer), PEXA Fees for Representative Subscribers and Lodgement Fees for all Subscribers are automatically included as destinations in the Financial Settlement Schedule, which means they will be paid at settlement. As the PEXA and Lodgement Fees are paid at the time of settlement, they cannot be charged to the client as disbursements. Charging the PEXA and Lodgement Fees to the client will result in a duplication of payment. 

Some practitioners disclose the PEXA fee to clients as an amount payable by that client. Others agree to bear the PEXA fee or contribute to it (split it with the client). In practice, this is achieved by reducing the amount of professional fees by the amount (or portion) of the PEXA fee.

While Lodgement Fees for all documents in the Workspace are included as a single destination line item, PEXA Fees for Financial Institutions will continue to be direct debited, even where there is a Financial Settlement. For illustration, refer to Table 1 in section 4 "Payment of Lodgement Fee in a Transfer". 
2. Supply of invoices
Lodgement Fees
PEXA will supply a Subscriber with an invoice for the relevant Land Registry Lodgement Fees on the evening of the Business Day of the successful completion of the relevant Conveyancing Transaction as follows:
  • For a Conveyancing Transaction involving multiple parties – to the Responsible Subscriber in respect of the Conveyancing Transaction; and
  • For a Conveyancing Transaction involving a single Subscriber – to that Subscriber (unless the functionality described in section 9 is applied, in which case the invoice will be provided to the Panel Master where the Panel Master is to be billed for the Charges).

In a Conveyancing Transaction involving multiple parties (such as a Transfer) the Responsible Subscriber is typically the Incoming Mortgagee (or if there is no Incoming Mortgagee, the Incoming Proprietor). It is important that Subscribers edit and view the Lodgement Instructions to ensure the correct Responsible Subscriber has been selected. Only one Responsible Subscriber can be selected per Lodgement Case.

PEXA Fees
PEXA will supply each Subscriber with an invoice for the relevant PEXA Fee on the evening of the Business Day of the relevant Lodgement and / or Financial Settlement. If the functionality described in section 9 "Bill to instructions" is applied, the invoice will be supplied to the Panel Master where the Panel Master is to be billed for the Charges. 
3. payment of pexa fee in a transfer
A PEXA Fee is payable by each Subscriber, depending on their role in the Workspace. In a Transfer Workspace, the PEXA Fee is payable by both the Incoming Proprietor and Proprietor on Title and is automatically included as destination line items in the Financial Settlement Schedule, which means they will be paid at settlement.

To avoid the Incoming Proprietor paying both PEXA Fees from source funds, the vendor’s surplus should be reduced by the amount of the vendor’s PEXA Fee.

For the Incoming Proprietor, the PEXA Fee can simply be added to the total pool of source funds required to settle.

Refer to PEXA’s Pricing Schedule for more details.
4. payment of lodgement fee in a transfer
As discussed above, PEXA will collect the Lodgement Fee which is automatically included as a disbursement in the Financial Settlement Schedule. Whilst the Responsible Subscriber will receive the invoice for the Lodgement Fee, the Lodgement Fee is paid out of the total pool of source funds. This will represent a change to the current process for payment of Lodgement Fees for some practitioners.

The below table shows how the PEXA Fee is paid and receipt of invoices in a Transfer Workspace. 
table-1.PNG
Note: Lodgement Fees are always included as a single destination line item in the Financial Settlement Schedule.
Representative Subscribers: Unless the Representative Subscriber has made other arrangements with PEXA, the PEXA Fee will be collected at settlement.
*If the loan contract allows the PEXA Fee to be passed on to the customer, the customer will be charged. If the loan contract does not allow the PEXA Fee to be passed onto the customer, the financial institution will absorb the fee.
^ Where the mortgagee is represented by a Representative Subscriber, the PEXA Fee will be included as a destination line item in the Financial Settlement Schedule and will be taken into account when calculating the total amount of source funds.
5. reconciliation by financial institutions 
In a paper settlement in Western Australia, the Vendor supplies a cheque for the fee for lodgement of the Discharge of Mortgage. In a PEXA settlement, the Vendor retains responsibility for the fee, either by creating a source line item, or accepting less surplus, which is effectively a direction to pay part of the Vendor’s entitlement to the Land Registry. As discussed in section 2, the Responsible Subscriber will receive an invoice for the total amount of Land Registry fees.

In a paper settlement in South Australia, the Purchaser pays its own Lodgement Fee for the transfer of land via Revnet. However, in PEXA, the Incoming Mortgagee receives an invoice for the whole of the lodgement fees (being lodgement fees for discharge of mortgage, transfer and mortgage).The Incoming Mortgagee may include those fees in its loan breakdown summary to the borrower.

If the loan contract provides that the borrower should pay for the registration of the Mortgage and the Transfer, these can be included in the loan breakdown. The Discharge of Mortgage fee is not included in the loan breakdown as a statutory fee payable by the borrower (the Purchaser), but as part of the total destinations payments paid at the instruction of its customer – being the obligation the customer has to pay funds to the Vendor or as the Vendor directs.

The Incoming Mortgagee can show that the loan proceeds, together with any Purchaser’s equity contributed by the Purchaser’s lawyer or conveyancer, are pooled together and disbursed to the destination accounts specified in the Financial Settlement Schedule. A Settlement Completion Record is available for all PEXA settlements, showing the total source funds and total destination funds.

The statement of adjustments shown earlier demonstrated the adjustment of the Discharge of Mortgage lodgement fee and will result in the following source and destination line items in PEXA. 

Sources: South Australian example 
7a.png
Destination: South Australian example
7b.png

As an alternative, the Representative Subscriber acting for the Vendor could create a source line item with respect to the Discharge of Mortgage lodgement fee, provided it has not also included an adjustment for that fee. PEXA expects Representative Subscribers to determine their preferred approach. Over time, industry may develop its own conventions for treatment of the Discharge of Mortgage lodgement fee in electronic settlements.

In relation to the lodgement fee for a Transfer in South Australia, the Representative Subscriber acting for the Purchaser can either create a source line item for purchaser’s equity (to cover the Transfer lodgement fee, or some higher amount if required) or direct the Incoming Mortgagee in relation to funds required from the loan (which might be sufficient to address all destination line items including the Transfer lodgement fee).
6. payment of lodgement and pexa fees in a refinance
The below table shows how the PEXA Fee is paid and receipt of invoices in a Refinance.
step8.PNG
Note: Lodgement Fees are always included as a single destination line item in the Financial Settlement Schedule.
Representative Subscribers: Unless the Representative Subscriber has made other arrangements with PEXA, the PEXA Fee will be collected at settlement.
*If the loan contract allows the PEXA Fee to be passed on to the customer, the customer will be charged. If the loan contract does not allow the PEXA Fee to be passed onto the customer, the financial institution will absorb the fee.
^ Where the mortgagee is represented by a Representative Subscriber, the PEXA Fee will be included as a destination line item in the Financial Settlement Schedule and will be taken into account when calculating the total amount of source funds.
7. bill to instructions
Where a financial institution or other entity is a Panel Master and a transaction is performed by a Panel Member (Representative Subscriber), ordinarily the Representative Subscriber’s account will be direct debited for applicable Charges where the transaction does not involve Financial Settlement. However, PEXA has introduced functionality which will allow the Panel Master’s account to be direct debited where the Panel Master has provided instructions to PEXA. Where this functionality applies, the Panel Master will receive the invoices for the applicable Charges.

Maintaining System Security and Integrity (PR 7)

A PEXA Subscriber has obligation under the PRs to ensure it does nothing that may have an adverse effect on the Electronic Lodgment Network (ELN). PEXA has developed a Security Policy which the Subscriber must comply with. This document can be found at https://www.pexa.com.au/security-policy .

Please note this is a not an exhaustive list of the compliance obligations in relation to Security, for further information please refer to the PRs 7.1 Protection Measures.

The Subscriber must take reasonable steps to protect the ELN, this includes but is not limited to:

  • Having appropriate virus protection software installed
  • training and monitoring of its Users in relation to the Subscriber’s security obligations; and
  • not do anything that it knows or ought reasonably to know is likely to have an adverse effect on the operation, security, integrity, stability or the overall efficiency of the ELN.

In relation to Users, the Subscriber must keep the following up to date:

  1. their Users’ Access Credentials
  2. signing rights linked to those Access Credentials
  3. administrative rights linked to those Access Credentials.

The Subscriber must also:

Ensure that they have at least 1 person within the practice who has taken on the role of Subscriber Administrator (note that Subscriber Managers perform functions including the function of Subscriber Administrators).

7.4 Signers

The Subscriber must also, in accordance with PR 7.4.1(b) take reasonable steps to ensure that the Signer is not or has not been subject to:

  1. an Insolvency Event within the last 5 years; or
  2. a conviction of fraud or an indictable offence or any offence for dishonesty against any law in connection with business, professional or commercial activities; or
  3. disqualification from managing a body corporate under the Corporations Act; or any disciplinary action of any government or governmental authority or agency, or any regulatory authority of a financial market or a profession, which may impact on a Signer’s conduct of a Conveyancing Transaction.

NOTE: If a Signer is: an Australian Legal Practitioner, a Licensed Conveyancer, a Public Servant acting on behalf of the Crown in right of the Commonwealth, a State or a Territory, or a Local Government Officer acting on behalf of a Local Government Organisation, the Subscriber is deemed to comply with Participation Rule 7.4.1(b) as detailed above.

7.5 Digital Certificates

Please note the following important compliance items:

  • All Electronic Documents Lodged through the PEXA System must be Digitally Signed;
  • Subscriber’s must obtain and maintain valid at least one Digital Certificate.
  • Take reasonable steps to ensure that only Signers that are legally entitled to sign Registry Instruments (refer Participation Rule 5.3(b)) Digitally Sign electronic Registry Instruments or other electronic Documents

Client Engagement

There are many benefits to switching to electronic transactions, for both you and your clients.

On this page, we explore the benefits of e-conveyancing for your clients, whether they are vendors or purchasers. 

Client Pitch

Exchanging property online through PEXA can lead to a number of benefits for your clients. These have been detailed below.

Vendor Benefits

Fast Access to Funds

In the manual process, the client would wait days for a cheque to clear in order to access settlement funds, or would pay a fee for special clearance. In the PEXA System, funds are transferred electronically as part of settlement and when the vendor banks with a major bank, are typically available to the vendor within hours (this may vary depending on which institution the vendor banks with).

Greater Certainty of Successful Settlement

In the manual world, settlement may fail because of an error in documentation. In order to ensure greater certainty of successful settlement, PEXA ensures that the name on transfer matches the name on the mortgage prior to settlement. A Lodgement Verification is automatically initiated at pre-determined intervals during a Financial Settlement Transaction. If the Lodgement Verification indicates an error, then PEXA will Unsign the affected documents (if previously signed) and notify the relevant Subscribers. This ensures that the registry instruments can be corrected in order to effect a successful settlement through PEXA.

Better Information

As Subscribers in a Workspace have greater visibility over the settlement process, clients of these practitioners can expect to be better informed than clients who settle using the manual process.

  • SettleMe is the application for vendors and purchasers.
  • It allows clients of PEXA Subscribers to track the progress of their settlement.
  • SettleMe also incorporates task lists for the client.

Purchaser Benefits

Greater Security

In the manual process, lodgement of documents at the Land Registry may occur sometime after settlement. In PEXA, lodgement of documents occurs in real time (purchaser’s interest will be lodged against the title in a matter of minutes, rather than days or weeks).

Greater Certainty of Clear Title

A Title Activity Check (TAC) is carried out in PEXA at pre-determined intervals as well as one hour prior to the time of scheduled settlement. PEXA identifies any activity on the Land Title Reference since the last TAC was completed and therefore provides greater certainty that the purchaser’s interest will be registered on title compared to the manual world. If the TAC indicates activity on the Land Title, PEXA will not allow a Conveyancing Transaction to proceed unless the Subscribers who are, or who are acting for, any purchaser, incoming mortgagee or incoming caveator have all elected to continue with the transaction. In the manual world, the purchaser’s representative would not be aware of any activity on the Land Title Reference without doing a title search.

Greater Certainty of Successful Settlement

In the manual world, settlement may fail because of an error in documentation. In order to ensure greater certainty of successful settlement, PEXA ensures that the name on transfer matches the name on the mortgage prior to settlement. A Lodgement Verification is automatically initiated at pre-determined intervals during a Financial Settlement Transaction. If the Lodgement Verification indicates an error, then PEXA will Unsign the affected documents (if previously signed) and notify the relevant Subscribers. This ensures that the registry instruments can be corrected in order to effect a successful settlement through PEXA.

More Efficiencies

The purchaser is no longer required to purchase bank cheques for settlement.

This alleviates any last minute rush to arrange cheques and settlement being delayed when printed cheques contain errors in names, or when there is a last minute change to the required amount.

Better Information

As Subscribers in a Workspace have greater visibility over the settlement process, clients of these practitioners can expect to be better informed than clients whose settlement is undertaken using the manual process.

The practitioner will be able to inform the purchaser of whether their bank has completed their part of the transaction and provide an update on whether the counterparty is ready for settlement.

Less Paperwork

The Client Authorisation Form authorises the Subscriber to act on behalf of the client in a Conveyancing Transaction, including Signing documents on their behalf.

This reduces the amount of paperwork that the client has to complete.

  • SettleMe is the application for vendors and purchasers.
  • It allows clients of PEXA Subscribers to track the progress of their settlement.
  • SettleMe also incorporates task lists for the client.

Lodgement Gap Cover

In the manual world, there is a lodgement gap risk. This means that a late dealing on the title, in between settlement and lodgement, may impact registration.

In the electronic world, the gap between last successful Title Activity Check (TAC) and lodgement is covered as PEXA now assumes responsibility for any loss incurred (subject to the conditions set out in the Participation Agreement) when a dealing prevents registration or takes priority, giving you and your clients greater peace of mind.

This applies to any intervening dealing between the last successful Title Activity Check (TAC) and lodgement. The last TAC must have taken place within 2 business days of the scheduled settlement.

In this case, PEXA will assume responsibility for:

  • Any resulting difference in the land value;
  • Legal fees incurred; and/or
  • Certain other expenses that are incurred

There is no equivalent cover in the manual world. Your clients have the option to take out insurance but this would be at an additional cost.

For purchasers, this coverage is applied by default and is at no extra cost.

PEXA also reduces the gap between settlement and registration by lodging with the Land Registry in real-time. 

Client Authorisation Form

On this page, we'll help you obtain a Client Authorisation Form.

For each PEXA transaction, the practice must obtain a Client Authorisation Form signed by the Client or Client Agent (e.g. an attorney).

The signed copy of the form must remain on file (either electronically or otherwise) throughout the lifecycle of your matter (including the obligation to retain for 7 years post completion).

Decide when this will be provided to clients (e.g. posted out with the engagement letter or handed to client in interview at the time of VOI)?

You can download a copy of the Client Authorisation Form by visiting the ARNECC website at http://www.arnecc.gov.au/publications

If you are a Subscriber that is a Representative, you must:

  1. use the Client Authorisation Form for any Client Authorisation you enter into; and
  2. except for Caveats and Priority/Settlement Notices you must enter into a Client Authorisation with your Client before the Subscriber Digitally Signs any Document; and
  3. comply with the Client Authorisation; and
  4. take reasonable steps to verify the authority of each Person entering into a Client Authorisation.

The below is an example of a completed Client Authorisation Form taken from MPR Guidance Note #1 – Client Authorisation Version 0.7 (draft) - 05/01/2015 which can be found on the ARNECC website here.

Verification of Identity for your Client

On this page we'll explore how to meet the Verification of Identity Standard on behalf of your clients.

ARNECC have produced a guidance note on the subject of VOI. Please refer here to access this guidance.

Please refer to Schedule 8 of the PR for the Verification of Identity Standard.

The Subscriber must take reasonable steps to verify the identity of:

  1. Clients: each Client or each of their Client Agents; and
  2. Mortgagors
  3. Persons to whom certificates of title are provided
  4. Signers: each of its Signers, prior to the initial allocation of a Digital Certificate to the Signer
  5. Subscriber Administrators

To comply with PR 6.5.1 the Subscriber, or a mortgagee represented by the Subscriber, can either:

  1. apply the Verification of Identity Standard; or
  2. verify the identity of a Person in some other way that constitutes the taking of reasonable steps.

Note: PR 6.5.3 - You must undertake further steps to verify the identity of a Person Being Identified if:

  • The documents do not appear genuine
  • or photograph on an identity Document produced is not a reasonable likeness
  • inadequate documentation presented without a reasonable explanation

Note: The Subscriber need not re-verify the identity of the Person Being Identified if:

  1. the Subscriber complied with Participation Rule 6.5.1 within the previous 2 years; and
  2. the Subscriber takes reasonable steps to ensure that it is dealing with the Person Being Identified.

If the Verification of Identity Standard is used:

  1. the Subscriber, or a mortgagee represented by the Subscriber, may use an Identity Agent for example Australia Post and ZipId; and
  2. where an Identity Agent is used, the Subscriber or the mortgagee must direct the Identity Agent to use the Verification of Identity Standard; and
  3. the Identity Verifier must be:

(i) the Subscriber and/or the Subscriber’s Identity Agent; or
(ii) where a Subscriber represents a mortgagee, that mortgagee and/or that mortgagee’s Identity Agent; and
(d) the Subscriber or the mortgagee must receive from any Identity Agent:
(i) copies of the Documents produced to verify the identity of the Person Being Identified and/or any Identity Declarant signed, dated and endorsed as a true copy of the original by the Identity Agent; and
(ii) an Identity Agent Certification.

NOTE: Refer to PR 6.5.6 for information regarding “reasonable steps”.

How can I VOI my clients?

Decide on whether you will apply the VOI Standard in Schedule 8 of the MPR or take other reasonable steps to verify your clients.

Factors to consider:

  • Will you require VOI to be face-to-face (per the standard)?
  • Will you conduct VOI in-house or use an Identity Verifier service?
  • Will there be one person in the practice responsible for VOI or will each staff member VOI their own clients?

If you do not perform the verification of identity yourself, you may be able to use an agent (such as Zip ID, Australia Post or ID Secure) to verify the identity of your client. Please note, there is a cost associated with this service, please contact your service provider for further details.

Zip ID

If you would like to use the ZipID VOI App for completing the VOI in your client interview, you can register for free and download the App at www.zipid.com.au/app. If your client prefers the convenience of being verified at home or work, ZipID's mobile representatives can complete the VOI on your behalf (Mon-Sat).

Australia Post

If you would like to use the Australia Post Verification of Identity service for your client VOI requirements you will first need to register with Australia Post by completing the Land Title ID form. Once you have completed the form, Australia Post will contact you to complete the final steps. Please visit www.auspost.com.au for more information.

IDSecure

If you would like to use IDSecure's national 'come to you'  available in selected metropolitan and regional areas and/or in-house verification solution, you can register for free by visiting www.idsecure.com.au/contact/. Please visit www.idsecure.com.au for more information.

Updating my Client Engagement Letter

The following letter will help you update your client engagement letter to communicate the benefits of online land title transfers and obtain their authorisation to complete electronic transactions on their behalf.

Note: Information in this document is for illustrative purposes only and is intended to give you a general outline of how your engagement letter could be worded. This wording is a guide only and does not constitute and is not intended to constitute legal advice.

ELECTRONIC SETTLEMENT

Dear [name of client],

Congratulations on your purchase and thank you for choosing [name of conveyancing service].

Legislation in [state name] means we now have the option of completing property transactions electronically, through a secure platform known as PEXA (Property Exchange Australia).

Settling electronically helps streamline the conveyancing process by:

  • Reducing the chance of delays.
  • Eliminating the need for you to personally attend our office to sign certain documents.
  • (If purchaser) Eliminating the need for you to obtain bank cheques for settlement.
  • (If vendor) Processing your sale proceeds to your nominated account as cleared funds, so you don’t have to wait for a bank cheque to clear.

Find out more about the benefits of PEXA, by visiting the PEXA website at https://www.pexa.com.au/buyers-sellers.

Another benefit of PEXA is that you will be covered, subject to conditions, against any last-minute unforeseen activity (such as a caveat) that might affect registration. This means, in the unlikely event of there being any issues with lodgement, we can proceed with a ‘lodgement override’ option. This cover, which in the manual world would require insurance at an additional cost, is free with PEXA. Please let us know if you have any concerns with this.

If your transaction is able to be completed electronically, you can access the free settlement tracking app, SettleMe. Through SettleMe, you can easily view up-to-date settlement information on a customised dashboard, as well as receiving instant notifications as settlement progresses. Find out more here https://settleme.pexa.com.au/.

If your transaction is eligible for electronic settlement and you would like us to proceed with this option, you will need to provide us with a Client Authorisation (see attached form). This gives us the authority to digitally sign documents on your behalf.

 

[Subhead] APPOINTMENT FOR VERIFICATION OF IDENTITY

As we are required to verify the identity of our clients, we ask that you contact us on (XX) XXXX XXXX to arrange an appointment. Please bring your passport and driver’s licence to this appointment.

If you do not have these documents, let us know and we will advise of alternative acceptable documentation.

PEXA Residential Seller Guarantee

The PRSG provides protection to sellers of residential property in the event of a certain kind of fraud. Where the PRSG applies, the seller has the option to make a claim against PEXA, rather than seeking to recover the loss by an alternative means.

Access to proceeds of sale is much faster with PEXA. If your client hasn’t received their funds within 24 hours this should raise a red flag for you and your client. Speak with your client and ensure they contact you as soon as they suspect something unusual.

 

How it works

The PRSG applies to settlements of residential property on or after 29 June 2018 and sellers can only avail of this guarantee if their conveyancer settles the sale of their property online using PEXA.

Key points

  • The PRSG applies to sellers in respect of the settlement of residential property where the vendor’s funds are misdirected after the seller’s practitioner has entered the correct bank account details into the PEXA platform.
  • There is a $2 million cap on PEXA’s liability per settlement.
  • Further conditions must be satisfied before a claim can be made under the PRSG. A summary of conditions can be found here.

For further information, you can view these frequently asked questions.

 

In this edition of 5 in 5, Senior Lawyer, Emma Elsworth, speaks with Marcus Price, PEXA CEO, about the introduction of PEXA’s Residential Seller Guarantee (PRSG).
