PEXA has introduced the ability to lodge an Encumbrance and Discharge an Encumbrance in SA. An encumbrance can be registered on a title as a restriction regarding the use of the land. It is an agreement creating various obligations on the parties, restricting or forbidding certain acts on the property. When purchasing a property in a recently developed area, an encumbrance in favour of the developer often appears against the title of the property. Many encumbrances aim to maintain uniformity within the development and are applicable to each and every property in the area.  Encumbrances can be seen as a benefit, as they help maintain consistency with certain types of developments. Other encumbrances can be ‘lifted and replaced’. As the terms specify, they do not run with the title.  The existing encumbrance is discharged as part of settlement (i.e., lifted) and a new encumbrance in the purchaser’s name in similar terms is registered at settlement (i.e., replaced). You will see the new roles of Encumbrancee on Title and Incoming Encumbrancee when creating a new workspace in PEXA. This functionality also supports the uploading and attaching of supporting Covenants via the Files screen. Watch a demo and webinar on SA Encumbrances below (24 mins)   1. Create a Workspace in the role of Encumbrancee on Title with no financial settlement. Note: If this is part of a transfer (and a lift and replace is required), you will most likely be invited into a Transfer Workspace by the Incoming Proprietor or the Proprietor on Title. 2. Check the Land Title details screen.  3. Navigate to the Participants screen, locate the party shown as Encumbrancee on Title and use the action to confirm that you represent this party.  4. Navigate to the Documents screen, click Create Document and select Discharge of Encumbrance.  5. Ensure the details are correct and select the appropriate Set of Operative Words for this Discharge of Encumbrance.  6. View, Sign and Submit in the usual manner.  ... View more

One of the great perks of working closely with regional firms, is the chance to head off on a road tripping adventure to visit them all! A fortnight ago, @AmandaSoames and I grabbed the opportunity to head out of the city and visit 4 firms in Warrnambool and 3 firms in Colac.   Each of these firms are working closely with @AmandaSoames to complete the Virtual Training Program and transition to e-Conveyancing.   First off, a huge shout out to Jellie McDonald and Dwyer Robertson in Warrnambool, who have both graduated from the Virtual Training Program and are now PEXA Certified.  We had a great time presenting the firms’ with their trophies & celebrating their achievement!   As a member of the marketing team, I really appreciated the chance to hear first-hand from these firms how the range of training materials included in the PEXA Certified program have been received. I was very excited to hear that the firms’ found the training materials to be a really useful tool to assist with learning to use PEXA.   We’re currently gearing up to release a new and improved design on the PEXA Certified pages, which I was able to discuss with the firms. Based on our conversations, we are looking forward to being able to highlight the how-to videos and interactive tutorials and improve the ease with which these learning materials can be found. Watch this space!    I thoroughly enjoyed the opportunity to see and hear how firms’ are using PEXA and building e-Conveyancing in to fit with their business processes. It’s great to see how much the firms’ are supporting each other through the transition & moving together as a region.   I can’t wait to hear more about your experiences with PEXA!   ... View more

In line with the PEXA System Pricing Policy, the annual PEXA pricing increase comes into effect on Tuesday 1 August, 2017. The new pricing table inclusive of GST for the key transactions from 1 August 2017 is:  The full pricing table is available here. *Settlement Notices and Settlement Notice Withdrawal fees for single & multiple titles will be automatically discounted to $8.80 from 1 August 2017.   Settlement Notices (QLD) From 1 August 2017 the PEXA fee for Settlement Notices will be applied for all Settlement Notices completed electronically through PEXA. To align with the PEXA fee for Priority Notices in New South Wales and Victoria, the PEXA fee to lodge or withdraw Settlement Notices will be discounted to $8.80 per title ($8.80 per single title and $8.80 for multiple titles). This is a great saving from the current cost of $19.03 to lodge or withdraw a Settlement Notice for a single title and $32.45 to lodge or withdraw a Settlement Notice for multiple titles.   Determining the fee increase The annual review of PEXA fees for electronic lodgements is determined in accordance with the PEXA Pricing Policy. A number of elements are taken into account when reviewing the PEXA fees. The first element is the change in the weighted average lodgement support services (LSS) costs from the Land Registries. Any change in the weighted average LSS is passed through directly. The second is the Consumer Price Index (weighted average of eight capital cities) published by the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS 6401.1) CPI for the period has increased by 2.1% and this was applied to PEXA's operational cost component. The third element relates to changes to PEXA's direct input costs (including, for example, costs that may be introduced by third parties which materially impact the cost of providing services), although no additional costs were factored into the most recent price review.   What next? PEXA will continue to expand its capability to support a broader range of transaction types and reduce existing exclusions throughout the 2018 financial year and beyond. An extensive program of work is also underway to continue to enhance the PEXA user experience. We will be working closely with members of the e-Conveyancing Community to define, test and deliver this program.   If you have any questions regarding the changes to PEXA fees pleas get in touch. Contact our dedicated Support Team on 1300 084 515 or at support@pexa.com.au.   Updating the Fees in an existing Workspace If you have an existing Workspace that is scheduled to settle after 1 August 2017, you may need to update your Workspace to have the latest fees accurately reflected.

A couple of weeks ago I was fortunate to spend a day on the road visiting PEXA members, with @HeatherC. Throughout the day, we visited four firms all based in the south-eastern region of Melbourne.   Each of the firms were in different stages of their journey to incorporate e-Conveyancing into their businesses. Three of the firms, Cole & Co, Just Conveyancing and Ashmor Legal, are in the initial stages of learning to use the platform. The fourth firm we visited, Boothby & Boothby Solicitors, have been successfully transacting for quite a while, we had the great pleasure of delivering their PEXA Certified graduation trophy in celebration of their achievements!  Steve at Boothby & Boothby Solicitors receiving their PEXA Certified trophy. I was fascinated to discover that Cole & Co were operating in the same building that they have been based in since the 1940’s, which includes a purpose-built strong room! It was great fun to see the original strong room & take a few photos!   The original strong room at Cole & Co.  As we move towards a truly digital conveyancing future, it’s amazing to hear of the range of innovative solutions that firms’ are building into their businesses. @AshmorLegal shared with us their plans for integrating all of their various client management and conveyancing process systems to create the best possible client experience, as well as maximising their business potential. Ashmor Legal shared with us that they are excited to bring together a seamless electronic solution, that will enable their business to increase their workload capacity.   At the same time as joining PEXA, Ashmor Legal are taking the opportunity to review all of their business processes & identify opportunities to build in new electronic solutions to maximise efficiency, extend collaboration and ultimately take their business to the next level. This included signing up for Duties Online, registering with PEXA and activating integration between PEXA, InfoTrack and Leap Conveyancer.   It was fantastic and so exciting to hear about some of the plans that the firm are working through at the moment – I can’t wait to hear what Ashmor Legal do next!    Each of the firms that we met with were enthusiastic to learn PEXA and take full advantage of the benefits that e-Conveyancing can offer, I look forward to following their journeys to 100% digital & hearing all about their successes!  ...
