I recently had a chat to Josephine from Range Lawyers about PEXA Key and whats the experience been like for their clients.   What is your experience with PEXA Key? Simple to set up and use as part of the initial set up of the transaction.  Good knowing the account details are being securely shared and saves phone calls to and from client to verbally verify account details. What has been the feedback from your clients around their experience? Clients love having the app to look at.  Helps them feel “involved” and a part of the settlement process.   PEXA Key is a secure alternative to email for communicating bank account details (vendor's account, your trust account, PEXA source account).

What a fabulous way to round out the financial year! To bring our Practitioners together apart and to say thank you we ran a few virtual wine tastings with Tractorless Vineyard. We sampled some lovely Australian wine with a very enthusiastic and experienced winemaker. Jeff Aston was very engaging and made the experience enjoyable and very educational. Thank you to all who were involved in these events, it was very much enjoyed by all.

WOW to say thanks to all the wonderful volunteers that make up the SES (State Emergency Service). As a new SES volunteer in my small town of Chiltern North East Victoria, i am in awe of what SES volunteers actually do. Here is a small part of what SES crews do...... WHAT IS THE STATE EMERGENCY SERVICE? The SES is a not-for-profit,   community based, volunteer, emergency service   enabled by both State and Local Governments. The SES is the primary responder for storm and flood events. They also provide support to other agencies such as Police Service through performing additional functions including search and rescue, emergency traffic management, and road crash rescue. The SES becomes involved in preparing for, and responding to, many different types of disasters and emergencies, by performing:   CYCLONES & STORMS Performing temporary, emergency repairs Removal of fallen trees that are a threat to life.   ​VERTICAL RESCUE ​Rescuing people from heights and depths such as cliffs or ravines.   ​FLOOD BOAT RESPONSE Assisting in emergency flood boat operations including: evacuations emergency supplies to flooded communities and search in flood waters.   ​ROAD CRASH RESCUE Rescuing people from crashed vehicles and performing vehicle extractions.   ​SEARCHES Supporting the Police Service in undertaking urban, rural, forensic and evacuations searches.   ​EMERGENCY TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT ​Supporting the Police Service in incident site traffic control, road closure and diversions.   ​URBAN SEARCH & RESCUE ​​Supporting the Fire Service in response to structural collapse.   ​AGENCY SUPPORT Supporting other services in communications, welfare, lighting, air observation and resupply.   ​INCIDENT MANAGEMENT ​​Coordinating the responses of teams in the field and incident control   ​COMMUNITY EDUCATION ​​Working with the media and public to communicate safety messages and warnings. Helping the community to be more resilient to prepare for and respond to inevitable disasters.   I know for our small community who don't have a full time Police Officer, seeing an orange SES outfit coming to help with sandbagging to stop your house being flooded, or getting up in the middle of the night to cut a tree up that has either fallen on your roof or across a dark road, can be a relief.  The training provided to all SES volunteers is amazing and great skills for everybody to know. Thanks for reading to the end and i know that's you way of saying thanks to all the volunteers  Here are a couple of photos of my wonderful PEXA team supporting WOW day and some of the wonderful things we do in the Chiltern SES.   PEXA QLD Team supporting WOW day Me in my outfit Big trees in the country And another tree down ...

  As we navigate this unknown territory, it is important now more than ever that your client’s interests are protected. Utilising PEXA to lodge Priority Notices is a fast, effective and secure way to ensure the priority of the transactions are noted.   When recorded on title, a Priority Notice has a twofold effect: Reserve priority for the transaction set out in the Priority Notice, and Notify parties searching the title that a transaction to be lodged against title is imminent.   With the Land Registry announcing that from today the DNRME business centres are being closed and to avoid densely populated areas we are encouraging all QLD practitioners to lodge their Priority Notices electronically to ensure instant registration.   Currently in QLD, the Better Together campaign means that lodging a Priority Notice via PEXA is $4.60.   For more information on how to lodge a Priority Notice please see here.   ...
