Check visa rules before you sign
Many Box Hill buyers are new to Australia. Foreign buyer rules can decide what you can buy and the duty you pay.

Conveyancing in Box Hill: frequently asked questions
Do I need to come to your office to buy in Box Hill?
No. Most clients meet with us online and sign documents electronically. In-person meetings at our Chadstone office are available by prior appointment.
How much does conveyancing cost?
We quote a fixed professional fee before we start. Government fees and searches are listed separately, so you can see exactly what you are paying for.
I am on a visa. Can I buy here?
It depends on your status and the property type. Foreign persons are currently banned from buying established homes and generally need approval for new homes or land. See our guide to buying on a visa, then talk to us.
When should I contact you?
Before you sign a contract or bid at auction, so we can review the contract and Section 32 while you can still negotiate.
