Conveyancing in Corio, Geelong VIC 3214
Corio is Geelong’s northern workhorse suburb, established streets around Corio Village with some of the most affordable houses in the region. That price point keeps it busy: first home buyers and investors compete for the same stock, and we act for both. Jeannette Ernst has handled Geelong conveyancing for over 30 years.
Before you sign a Corio contract, send it to us with the Section 32. You will have our comments within 24 hours, free, and no obligation to go further with us.

What we see in Corio property
For first home buyers, the stamp duty question is often worth more than the negotiation. Victoria’s first home buyer exemptions and concessions can take a serious bite out of the cost of getting in, and we make sure the contract and the concession paperwork line up.
For investors, many Corio properties sell with a tenant in place. The lease survives settlement, so we confirm its terms, the bond and the rent apportionment before you commit, and make sure the contract reflects the tenancy honestly.
The houses themselves are mostly 1950s to 1970s, and after decades of home improvement the gap between permits and reality can be real. The Section 32 must disclose permits from the last seven years; we read it with that history in mind.
