There’s no legal requirement to use a local conveyancer for property transactions. Individuals can choose a conveyancer from anywhere in Victoria, or even from outside the state, providing they’re licensed to practice in Victoria.
There can be practical benefits to using a local conveyancer. A local conveyancer may have a better understanding of local property market conditions and may also have established relationships with local real estate agents, which can facilitate the conveyancing process. However, as the conveyancing process is typically facilitated remotely, there should be no difference in the client experience between using a local conveyancer and another conveyancer who is licensed to practice in Victoria.
