The conveyancer's costs are borne by the purchaser. In practice, the conveyancer will collect the deposit and his transfer costs from the purchaser before proceeding to lodge the documents at the Deeds Office.

Upon registration of transfer at the Deeds Office, the conveyancer will recover the balance of the purchase price together with any other additional costs from the purchaser. This will be reflected in a final statement of account.

A final statement of account is also sent to the seller where the conveyancer will recover any additional costs from him/her such as courier fees.
