Conveyancing Law

Buying or selling property is one of the most important transactions you’ll ever make — and in South Africa, it’s also one of the most regulated. At Berg & Ferrero Attorneys Inc, we provide trusted conveyancing services that ensure your property transfer is handled with efficiency, accuracy, and full legal compliance.

Whether you’re a first-time buyer, a seasoned investor, or handling a property through a deceased estate, we’re here to make the process clear, smooth, and stress-free.

Why You Need a Conveyancing Attorney:

In South Africa, only qualified conveyancers – an attorney who has specialised (and qualified) in the preparation of deeds documents which are by law registrable in the deeds registry – may legally transfer immovable property ownership. Attempting to navigate the process without one can result in costly delays, rejected registrations, or even legal disputes.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does a conveyancing attorney do?

A conveyancing attorney handles the legal transfer of property ownership.

In South Africa, it is the seller’s right to appoint the conveyancer, but this can be negotiated between the parties.

A straightforward property transfer typically takes 6 to 12 weeks, but this can vary depending on factors like bond approval, municipal clearance delays, or SARS transfer duty turnaround.
