Local · Melbourne
Whichever side you’re on, these are the Melbourne-specific checks worth running. What applies depends on the individual property, so we tell you what to look at and when something needs a closer look.
Risk
If you are buying in Melbourne's apartment belt, from Docklands and Southbank to Carlton and Brunswick, your place most likely sits under an owners corporation. We read the OC certificate, the fees and the maintenance-fund balance, and check for combustible-cladding work and defect history, so any special levy or building dispute is out in the open before you commit.
Title
In Victoria the section 32 vendor statement is the document that matters, and it has to set out the title, the outgoings, any owners corporation, the planning and heritage overlays, and any building permits from the last seven years. Heritage overlays are common across Carlton, Fitzroy, East Melbourne and Parkville and limit what you can change out the front. We read the whole statement and check for owner-builder work done without warranty insurance, and because so much of Melbourne sells under the hammer, where there's no cooling-off on an auction purchase, or if you buy in the few days either side of one, we get it reviewed before auction day rather than after.
Zoning
Some of Melbourne's lower-lying pockets, around Elwood, Maribyrnong and parts of the inner north, carry Melbourne Water flood and overland-flow overlays that affect what you can build. We go through the section 32 outgoings and the planning overlays so the property's flood exposure is clear before you sign.
Adjustments
Greater Melbourne spans dozens of councils, and your water comes from one of a few separate retailers, Yarra Valley Water, South East Water or Greater Western Water, depending on the suburb. Rates and water are both apportioned at settlement. The seller covers the days they owned it, you cover the rest. We confirm the right authorities, get the adjustment right, and obtain the land information certificate so any outstanding rates on the property surface before settlement rather than after.

No. Zettle is a fully online conveyancing service covering all of Victoria, so your conveyancer does not need to be in Melbourne. Everything, from the section 32 review to signing and settlement through PEXA, is handled online wherever you are.
Three clear business days, running from the date you sign the contract rather than the date the seller signs. If you withdraw during it, the seller keeps $100 or 0.2% of the purchase price, whichever is greater. It does not apply if you buy at a public auction, or within three clear business days before or after one, and a few other sales are excluded as well.
Most Melbourne apartments and townhouses sit under an owners corporation. Before you commit, we review the OC certificate, the current fees, any maintenance and special levies, and the minutes for defect or cladding disputes, so you know the building's financial health and any looming costs.
In Victoria, settlement is commonly 30, 60 or 90 days from the contract date, with the exact period set in the contract. Your conveyancer manages the timeline through to settlement.
