Buying a Home in Queensland? Here's What You Need to Know About Residential Conveyancing
Ready to purchase your first home or next investment property?
Buying residential property in Queensland is a major milestone — but it’s also a legally complex process. At Gullickson Lawyers, we make buying property easy, transparent, and affordable with fixed-fee conveyancing from just $990 (including GST) plus outlays.
Whether you're buying in Brisbane, the Sunshine Coast, or anywhere in Queensland, our experienced team is here to protect your interests every step of the way.
What Is Residential Conveyancing?
Conveyancing is the legal process of transferring property ownership from the seller to the buyer. In Queensland, this includes:
Reviewing and advising on the contract of sale
Conducting property and title searches
Managing deposit and settlement dates
Communicating with the seller’s solicitor or conveyancer
Ensuring compliance with Queensland property laws
Overseeing settlement and transfer of funds
At Gullickson Lawyers, your conveyancing is handled by qualified staff — not automated systems. That means you get personal legal advice, not just paperwork processing.
Our Conveyancing Pricing — Fixed Fee, No Surprises
We offer residential conveyancing for $990 (incl. GST) plus outlays, which typically include:
Title and plan search
Rates and water search
Land tax or body corporate search (if applicable)
Settlement agent fees (if required)
We’ll give you a clear estimate of all costs up front so you know exactly what to expect.

Common Issues We Help Buyers Avoid
Many buyers don’t realise the risks involved in property purchases until it’s too late. We routinely help clients avoid:
Unfair contract conditions (e.g. finance or building clauses that don’t protect the buyer)
Surprise costs like unpaid rates or land tax
Boundary or easement issues affecting future use of the land
Delayed settlements and breach notices
Body corporate disputes in unit purchases
With Gullickson Lawyers on your side, you’ll understand exactly what you're signing and be fully protected at settlement.
When Should You Instruct a Lawyer?
Immediately after signing a contract — or even better, before. In Queensland, buyers don’t always get a lawyer involved early enough, and that can limit your ability to negotiate terms or terminate the contract without penalty.
Let us review your contract before the cooling-off period expires to make sure you're fully covered.
