Settling digitally enables you to support clients anywhere, anytime. We know that our members are utilising this flexibility and supporting buyers and sellers who are living or intent to relocate overseas.   Presently, we recognise the inability to transfer funds overseas from the FSS is a pain point, which requires you to spend time post-settlement to organise international payments – a process that can be cumbersome and costly.   Send is a non-bank, Australian based international payments and foreign exchange platform aiming to create borderless payment transfers.

As we approach the busy end of financial year period, it's more important than ever to remain wary of cyber-attacks – notably, phishing and payment redirection scams.   Phishing refers to any fraudulent attempt to obtain sensitive information or data, such as usernames, passwords and credit card details, by disguising oneself as a trustworthy entity in an electronic communication.   Phishing can be conducted via email, text message, phone call and other digital means.   Additionally, a typical payment redirection scam involves scammers impersonating a business or its employees via email or other channels and requesting an upcoming payment be redirected to a fraudulent account. This is commonly referred to as Business Email Compromise (BEC).   What to do   As always, the use of email is strongly discouraged for exchanging bank account details – this is NOT a safe channel for the communication of sensitive information and is highly susceptible to BEC scams.   Instructing your client to provide their bank account details via email directly places you and your firm at significant risk of a cyber-attack. Subscribers are urged to verbally confirm bank account details with clients before entering them into the PEXA workspace.   PEXA Key   We also highly recommend you make use of PEXA Key. This free app has been specifically built for industry to eliminate the risk of email phishing and enables your clients to provide their bank account details to their legal representative safely.   All data is encrypted and automatically transferred into the PEXA platform, mitigating any risk of interception.   If you suspect you’ve been targeted by a phishing attack or scam, it’s important to inform your relevant security contacts immediately. Acting fast ensures the best chance of recovery. There’s no need to fear speaking up – we’re all human, honest mistakes can happen and we’re here to help. ... View more

The number one priority for all settlement parties; practitioners, banks and indeed PEXA, is to help ensure consumers benefit from a seamless experience when buying and selling property.   That’s been the basis of a research initiative we’ve been undertaking throughout 2022 – specifically, we’ve been working with members to identify key pain points and gather insights from your industry peers on best practice.   As part of this project, with EOFY around the corner, we’ve developed a Quick Reference Guide to settling on time, for all roles in a workspace.   The steps within have been crafted from feedback provided by your peers. It’s our members who are the industry experts – and we hope this resource assists you with the upcoming peak period and beyond.   You can download this PDF below.   We also recommend you consult the individual Bank Transfer Checklists (keep an eye out for updated versions in the very near future) and our Transfer   for more information.   As always, we’d love to hear your thoughts – please reach out to practitioner@pexa.com.au or your PEXA Partner. ...

Late receipt of documents, pre-settlement conditions and member contribution can impact the settlement timeframe.   Failure to meet the above timeframes may impact P&N’s ability to settle on the preferred settlement date and time.   On day of settlement P&N will need to have satisfied all internal approvals prior to workspace sign off.   Conversations   Please use PEXA conversation tools to contact us if there is an issue with a digital settlement.   Please do not respond to a conversation requesting completion of a task if the task is completed and visible in the workspace.    Please do not send a conversation requesting sign off. ...

PEXA works closely with the Australian Cyber Security Centre (ACSC) to ensure our systems and most importantly, our members, are protected from cyber-crime – this remains of the utmost importance to us.   The ACSC has published an alert to organisations regarding the current situation unfolding in Ukraine. Within, it’s noted that there has been a historical pattern of cyber-attacks against Ukraine that have had international consequences.   The alert further explains that malicious cyber activity could impact Australian organisations through unintended disruption or uncontained malicious cyber activities.   A link to the alert can be found here: Australian organisations encouraged to urgently adopt an enhanced cyber security posture.   Whilst the alert does not identify any current increase in attacks targeting Australian businesses, it is strongly urged that all organisations evaluate and reinforce their cyber-security at this time.   PEXA recommends that organisations review the ACSC’s latest advice, continue to remain vigilant and ensure you maintain a robust, multi-layered cyber-defence structure.   As always, our team are available to assist with any queries or concerns you may have – please reach out to us at security@pexa.com.au. ...

We understand that settlement certainty is of the utmost importance to both our members and their clients.   One of our key priorities at this time is collaborating with all parties to ensure we’re continuously enhancing this experience.   In line with this work, we’ve recently introduced new workspace features, including:   Lodgement verification being completed prior to SDV Auto-calculation of vendor surplus for MoT and now PoT, which is also being trialled for the IM Due dates attached to tasks in the WS   Our latest data indicates that two common causes of delays to settlement are:   Ready for Shortfall indicated by the IP to the IM Returning of correct/complete loan documentation   To assist with this, we are introducing new workspace alerts to highlight to the IP when these items remain outstanding in the final days before settlement is scheduled. To monitor if these alerts are helping improve settlement certainty, approximately half of our SA members will start to see these alerts on their Dashboard from 7 December. We hope that this information will provide you some visible prompts as to where to follow up items, or perhaps assess the possibility of rescheduling the settlement date, if at all possible.     We’re running an initial trial of this in South Australia – and we’d love your feedback to help us continue to refine this new initiative.   If you have any questions or thoughts, please share them below. ...

As we approach the busy end of year period, with an exceptionally high volume of settlements set to be processed, it's more important than ever to remain wary of email phishing and cyber-attacks.   In the weeks ahead, we encourage you to ensure you have cyber-secure steps built into your settlement process. These measures are no longer ‘nice-to-haves’ – they must be implemented to ensure your transactions remain safe.   As always, the use of email is strongly discouraged for exchanging bank account details – this is NOT a safe channel for the communication of sensitive information.   Instructing your client to provide their bank account details via email directly places you and your firm at significant risk of a cyber-attack. Subscribers are urged to verbally confirm bank account details with clients before entering them into the PEXA workspace.   We highly recommend you make use of secure, encrypted applications, such as PEXA Key, to communicate sensitive information with your clients.   If you suspect you’ve been targeted by a phishing attack or scam, it’s important to inform your relevant security contacts immediately.

On Monday 11 October 2021, NSW will move to 100% eConveyancing by retiring paper titles and CoRD holder consents – providing a pathway for all documents to be digitally lodged. There are new conveyancing rules to support the change available here. The industry is working together to ensure there is a smooth transition to this significant milestone. There are some important things to note to support this change:   The term “Paper Dealing” will be replaced by “Dealing with Exception” (DwE) in PEXA New Lodgement Rules will be announced shortly, detailing waivers to the conveyancing rules here There will be two settlement pathways for Dealings with Exception: DwE Physical Settlement between parties and responsible subscriber uploads the documents in PEXA; or DwE Digital PEXA Settlement where each party uploads their respective documents in PEXA (as per usual) Please ensure that you include in the PEXA invitation, under notes:  This is a dealing with exception workspace  and follow up in the conversation tool within PEXA.   Important dates                   The details   How to transact a Dealing with Exception (DwE)   Financial Institutions have advised that documents required to be lodged as a DwE will require a physical settlement and the Responsible Subscriber (typically the Incoming Mortgagee), will lodge all documents post settlement through a PEXA Workspace.  (Note: where there is no Incoming Mortgagee in a transaction, the responsible subscriber would be the Incoming Proprietor).   Financial Institutions are working towards being able to support a digital settlement and we will communicate this date as soon as we can. Note:  if you are unable to attend a physical settlement, please contact the Incoming Mortgagee as early as possible to discuss alternatives.   Process for a DwE Physical Settlement involving Financial Institutions:   Financial Institution initiates contact regarding a settlement Other parties respond as early as possible advising a DwE is required All parties prepare and complete a physical settlement Responsible Subscriber creates the Workspace and a PEXA “Dealing with Exception” document for each instrument in the Workspace. Each paper instrument is uploaded and attached to the corresponding PEXA document Responsible Subscriber submits the Lodgement Case Discharge Transfer Mortgage Status DwE DwE DwE Supported   Please note:  Only one scanned paper instrument can be uploaded per PEXA document The order of lodgement must be correct, e.g. Discharge – Transfer – Mortgage If one DwE is required, all documents in the lodgement case must be created as DwE’s Ensure attachment is a pdf with no password or encryption DwE transactions without an Incoming Mortgagee can proceed and the Incoming Proprietor will be the Responsible Subscriber Participants in a DwE workspace should be advised of a DwE transaction in the invitation notes (eg DwE – discharge deceased from mortgage), and by sending a conversation In the future, we hope to be able to lodge a hybrid of standard PEXA documents and DwEs.  Work on this is underway with NSW LRS.    Discharge Transfer Mortgage Status Mainstream Dealing Residual Document or DwE DwE Not supported Mainstream Dealing Residual Document or DwE Mainstream Dealing Not supported   For further information about this important change, please refer to:   Office of the Registrar General (ORG) NSW Land Registry Services (NSWLRS) PEXA Help Cards Your PEXA partner or Account Executive ...
