The Bunbury legal and conveyancing community have been getting together for some months now for regular breakfast catch ups to talk all things e-conveyancing. It's so great to see the industry working together to help each other as we move forward to a 100% digital lodgement environment - sharing tips, tricks, experiences and of course, breakfast. I was happy to step in to Ryan Clarke's (their regular PEXA attendee @RyanC) shoes whilst he is on leave and enjoy a lovely breakfast by the water with the Bunbury practitioners, and also @Morri, David Morrisey from BankWest/CBA who is also a regular attendee and Bunbury local. Big shout out to @Leisa for organising and getting everyone involved. Thanks for having me guys and keep up the great collabo ration!

Just confirming that this scenario can be completed via PEXA in WA for any WA subscribers out there (as long as there is no FHOG involved).

Hi @mli89 The PEXA fees (for both parties) and lodgement fees will be auto-populated in the Financial Settlement Schedule upon successful document verification by the land registry. You can pre-determine the fees applicable and "pre-balance" your FSS prior to these fees populating, so that when the documents are verified, and the fees auto-populate your FSS should then balance. Once your inputs are in the FSS you can sign off at any time (or you can choose to wait until it is finalised). The applicable PEXA fees can be found here: https://www.pexa.com.au/pricing And you might find this further information useful: https://community.pexa.com.au/t5/Help-Centre/PEXA-Fees-and-Lodgement-Fees-FAQs/ba-p/2820 Hope this helps Angella

We made it! Hi Everyone Very excited to say that 1 December has now past and we are operating in WA under the electronic document lodgement requirements as set by Landgate. Thanks to all those within the industry who have worked so hard to get us to this point - it truly has been a collaborative effort. I hope you are all using the new coversheet when lodging paper documents with Landgate. Further details: https://www0.landgate.wa.gov.au/for-individuals/legislation-and-reform/electronic-conveyancing Please feel free to continue to post any questions or queries you may have to this post and we will be sure to get back to you, or feel free to reach out to our support team or your PEXA Direct Specialist, or search our Community pages for the information.

Hi @NicC You can have your PEXA profile activated to lodge documents in WA without the need for a Revenue Online (ROL) account. However, you will not be able to transact in any capacity that has a stamp duty implication, eg: acting for the purchaser. You will however be able to lodge documents such as mortgages, caveats and also act for a seller. In order to have WA noted as an active jurisdiction within PEXA you will need to provide us with certain information, such as land registry contact details. Our support team can provide guidance on this. Once we have a written request and the necessary information, we can activate WA as a jurisdiction in which your firm can lodge documents via PEXA. With regards to registering for ROL, OSR WA will consider applications from lawyers from other states, but there are requirements that need to be met before they will approve the applications. OSR will assess each application and notify the applicant if further information is required. You might like to reach out to OSR to discuss further. Upon finalising your ROL account, and advising PEXA of the details, you will then be able to also act for the purchase in a transfer transaction. Hope that helps, Angella

Further to the above regarding Duplicate Holding Instructions in WA, to further clarify: - when you are discharging a second mortgage and there is a Duplicate CT Issued - you do not need to enter any Holding Details, as the first mortgagee will hold the CT. If you are getting lodgement errors, please make sure that the "Duplicate Issuing Details" in the Lodgement Instructions is noted as "Please Select" (as the default position is "No Duplicate to Issue"). You should then be able to obtain a successful lodgement verification from the land registry and proceed to sign and lodge your instructions. - when you are discharging a stand alone first mortgage and there is a Duplicate CT issued, you will need to enter both the "Duplicate Holding Details" and the "Duplicate Issuing Details" - and select that a Duplicate is to issue, as a stand alone discharge of mortgage cannot change the title issuing instructions (as per land registry requirements). As such, you will need to have a new CT Issued post the discharge of mortgage.

Hi @MarcusLiley You might find using the new PEXA Plus Dashboard meets your requirements in terms of accessing settlements in date order. This view is designed to help parties determine the most pressing tasks and settlements. You can access this via: plus.pexa.com.au or via the Single sign on in your PEXA Dashboard (the set of 9 small squares in the top right hand corner). Further information can be found here: https://community.pexa.com.au/t5/Frequently-Asked-Questions/Introducing-PEXA-Plus/ba-p/7205 We are continuing to expand out this offering, so please feel free to provide feedback within PEXA Plus. Thanks Angella

Hi @DMc Currently when there is a positive TAC, this does show in a panel notification in the Workspace Summary screen. Within this panel, there is a link to 'View Activity', which currently opens up the Land title page where you can scroll down to the TAC details to view the activity. In our next release 9.0.1 (scheduled for 8 December), an enhancement is being made to show the title activity directly from the WS summary page. Hope that answers your question. Thanks Angella

AngellaC · ‎26-11-2018

Hi @louisaharris Thanks for your query of OSR. We have reached out to OSR and they have advised that they will respond as soon as possible. I will be sure to follow them up and respond to your query as soon as I have the information to hand. Thanks Angella

AngellaC · ‎26-11-2018

Hi @DMc Thanks for the question regarding the new TAC changes in WA post Release 9.0. As part of the release, we have updated the Title Activity Check (TAC) in Western Australia to ensure that a positive TAC is displayed only for new activities on the land title that has not been previously returned. This ensures that incoming parties are not having to repeatedly provide approval for activities that were previously approved. On the day of settlement, if a positive TAC is returned, the incoming parties will only need to ‘confirm settlement execution’ if a new title activity has been returned from the Land Registry for the first time. All subsequent TAC responses received for the same activity will be displayed as no activity against the Land Title. This change now aligns the behaviour of WA TACs to all other jurisdictions. You can read more on this on the TAC page in Community: https://community.pexa.com.au/t5/Help-Centre/Title-Activity-Checks/ba-p/49 Hope this helps. Angella

One question we do often get asked is around the scope for lodging caveats against only one registered proprietor where there are two or more registered proprietors on title. At this point, only caveats impacting ALL registered proprietors on title can be lodged online. Those caveats described above can continue to be lodged in paper post 1 December with the use of the Request to Accept Paper Lodgement Cover Sheet (available https://www0.landgate.wa.gov.au/__data/assets/pdf_file/0010/66538/Request-to-accept-paper-lodgement-v1.0.pdf). You can read the full details of what documents are eligible for online lodgement on Landgate's Electronic Conveyancing page: https://www0.landgate.wa.gov.au/__data/assets/pdf_file/0016/16450/Eligible-documents-for-paperless-conveyancing.pdf

Morning All Brook from Landgate and I are here in the Perth PEXA office and ready to answer your questions about e-conveyancing and the 1 December 2018 compliance date. Please feel free to post any queries for OSR also, and they will get back to you as soon as possible. Look forward to hearing from you all. Angella

WA held their seventh Industry Symposium on Friday 23 November and the last before the 1 December compliance date, as set by Landgate. These sessions have been running for the last 12 months, bringing together banks, lawyers, conveyancers, the SRO and Landgate in the one room to discuss and seek resolution for any concerns or issues parties might be facing as we head towards 1 December. It's been a great forum for everyone to better understand the processes and key points for other parties in the buying-selling equation, with the realisation that all parties are seeking the same end goal - to provide the best possible service for the mutual client - the buyer or seller themselves. It's been a testament to everyone involved that we have seen some tangible outcomes and improvements in key metrics across the board over the course of the last 12 months. I wanted to say a big thanks to all those who have been involved in these sessions over the last year, especially those who have flown in from interstate for each session to understand the WA market better. Preparing for 1 December Landgate provides a transaction eligibility list which can be found on their e-Conveyancing webpage while OSR provide insight on their e-Conveyancing page and in their transaction guidelines. PEXA resources To help prepare for 1 December, PEXA’s training team are hosting a number of webinars to help you get ready. The list of webinars, registration links and videos of previous sessions can be found here . We are really excited about 1 December - thank you to everyone again for their commitment to the cause!

AngellaC · ‎26-09-2018

Today, Landgate do not enable titles having one or more proprietors on title in capacity (for example as Executor) eligible for electronic lodgement. PEXA continues to work with Landgate and WA OSR to expand the scope of titles and documents available for electronic lodgement.

AngellaC · ‎12-06-2018

Thanks for your query At this point in PEXA you can only lodge or withdraw a caveat over whole of land in WA. Please refer to the Landgate Eligible Documents list: https://www0.landgate.wa.gov.au/__data/assets/pdf_file/0016/16450/Eligible-documents-for-paperless-conveyancing.pdf We do not yet have a definitive timeframe for when this will be available, but are working with Landgate on increasing the scope of eligible documents and will advise the market as more documents/scope become available. Hope that helps Angella

AngellaC · ‎02-05-2018

Hi @SarahI Yes, you can complete a PEXA transfer when acting for the seller who has a power of attorney. You would need to undertake the normal due diligence as to the identity and authority of the PoA in the first instance, as you would in a paper world. You also need to obtain a Client Authorisation Form from the PoA, in addition to completing a VOI. I hope that answers your query. Thanks Angella

AngellaC · ‎17-04-2018

Hi Jessica In WA there is no ability to lodge additional documents with your national mortgage form. There is the ability for free text within the document, but this has a limit of 4,000 characters, which generally does not cover the more bespoke mortgages out there. The options are to either 1) register a "mostly generic" MCP with Landgate and reference this in your mortgage, adding in the specifics for this deal in the free text box; or 2) reference the conditions in the loan agreement and refer to this instrument in the free text box in the mortgage form. I cannot comment on the enforcability/legalities around the options however, so will leave it to you investigations. We are seeing most parties register the MCP at Landgate. I hope that helps somewhat. Angella

AngellaC · ‎11-02-2018

Great to be at the REIWA presentation on the changes to the JFGC on Thursday - with over 1,100 real estate agents in attendance. REIWA invited me to present on electronic settlements/PEXA so that their members are across the changes coming on 1 May. Thanks for having me REIWA - it was great to get across so may reps at the same time to help them understand the upcoming changes to property settlements happening this year.

AngellaC · ‎12-10-2017

Hi @MarcusLiley You are correct - lodgement verification of the documents with the relevant land registry will only be triggered once all documents are in a "Prepared" status. This will include the stamp duty verification for the transfer. Hope that helps. Angella

AngellaC · ‎29-06-2017

Great work Fiona and Adam :) So great to see the end client and how it benefits them also!!

AngellaC · ‎26-06-2017

Great achievement by all at the KDD team! Thank you all for your commitment to the cause and a huge congratulations on this milestone - leading the way not only in WA, but across the country as the industry evolves with the changes ahead for all participants. Well done!!!!!

AngellaC · ‎12-06-2017

These are great ideas - thanks so much all! We are looking at expanding the "checklist" flow within PEXA so that the conversation tool becomes more the exception to the process. Will certainly take these thoughts and comments into consideration when looking at the next iteration of the Checklists in PEXA. Keep the suggestions and thoughts coming Angella

AngellaC · ‎12-06-2017

Thanks @Lhyde8279 for sharing! Gear to hear these stories from our regular users. That's one of the many benefits of settling online Great work! Angella

AngellaC · ‎07-06-2017

Was a long day - heading off with the sunrise and back at sunset...but Geraldton turned on the sunshine during the day while PEXA and Landgate were in town for the WA e-Conveyancing Roadshow. Great to see a small, but very enthusiastic crowd join me and Brook Durling from Landgate at the Ocean Centre Hotel for an informative session, followed by a few networking drinks and nibbles. Looking forward to seeing the firms in Geraldton ramp up their e-conveyancing volumes in readiness for the changes ahead Early start - heading off at sunrise Beautiful sunshine in between Heading home at sunset

AngellaC · ‎30-05-2017

Great to see all the banks working towards the milestones that we have ahead of us in WA. This will also assist with the readiness for the transfer timelines later this year!

AngellaC · ‎16-05-2017

Welcome to the network Solomon Brothers - great to have you join us! We look forward to working with you and celebrating your first PEXA transaction soon. Angella

AngellaC · ‎12-05-2017

Apart from what you would normally do outside of PEXA (ie: deed of priority etc), the second (incoming) Mortgagee needs to obtain the paper title from the first mortgagee and then lodges the second mortgage via PEXA – certifying to Landgate that you hold the Duplicate CT and that it will be destroyed/invalidated for future dealings. If a new Duplicate CT is to be issued, it needs to be advised via the Lodgement Instructions and sent via post back to the first mortgagee. Hope that helps. Angella

AngellaC · ‎14-03-2017

Hi @DMc Thanks for starting this discussion. Last year we launched ‘PEXA Certified’. This can work as a check-list to ensure new subscribers are PEXA ready. Community members can complete learning check-points as you move through the program, or search for a specific help article via the community search function. Would love to hear from other community members on this too. Do you use a check-list? Thanks Angella Chick

AngellaC · ‎03-03-2017

Hey @DMc We’ve provided additional information regarding dates and deadlines in the WA Transformation article. If you’re interested in reading the Landgate Announcement, you’ll be able to access that too. Please let us know if you have any questions, Cheers Angella

AngellaC · ‎02-03-2017

Looking forward to having the PEXA Experts on hand to answer all your questions from WA during our own Ask us Anything event on the 14th March
