Thanks guys,
Didn't consider the risk of stuffing it up and having to spend thousands to fix it or getting sued etc...
I guess I will just have to make friends with a few lawyers in training at my Uni!
I agree. You need to treat your investment as a business because it is a business. Be prepared to pay a fair price for a job done well, otherwise you will learn this very important lesson the hard way."In training" doesn't sound much better than DIY.
Hi Terry,
Can lawyers from Sydney for example, do the conveyancing work in Melbourne? Or is it better for lawyers to do the work in the same area as the property?

You can do it yourself, but you stuff up its your problem, solicitor stuffs up its theirs and their insurance companies. Use a lawyer, not a conveyancer.
Not necessarily the best advise. Not all solicitors do conveyancing regularly enough to be contracted for it. Some even leave it to their para legals.
As is the best practise, find the best person for the job.
As a first timer buy some sort of conveyancing kit and follow the directions. If after that one you don't think it is worth it then don't do it again.
By solicitor, I mean property lawyer not someone who is not an expert. I am sure that there are great licensed conveyancers, however they don't even exist in Qld. Lawyers use paralegals, under their supervision to do conveyancing otherwise you would not want to pay their bills. You don't want to be paying a solicitor $400/hr to be conducting searches and all the administrative parts of a transfer.
The solicitor has the work practices and systems to deal with it properly and is right there, free of charge should some advice be needed. A conveyancer may have a solicitor they can call for advice, but at $40 for each 6mins soon eats into their profits.
