The famous phrase goes— necessity is the mother of invention. However, in this case, it’ll be more apt to rephrase it as such—necessity is the mother of innovation. As they say, modern problems require modern solutions and the COVID-19 outbreak has presented us with a host of very modern problems. Industries that rely on foot traffic, face-to-face interactions have suffered greatly. While few have crumbled, others have quickly adapted to accommodate new ways of functioning. It’s safe to say at this point that the pandemic has revolutionized the way we conduct business.
Conveyancing, by necessity, is one of the industries that, in any other scenario, would have fallen under the category of those that struggled due to social distancing. Social distancing demands that any interaction that cannot be managed digitally, be scrapped. Essentially, this includes in its long list, processes such as identity verification, home visits and wet signatures in the presence of witnesses. Technically, conveyancing should have virtually disappeared among all the other important activities that have taken a backseat.
However, with the technological measures that were adopted just in the nick of time, it has managed to escape the guillotine. Conveyancing in Sydney, is still up and running with the help of digital tools that eliminate the need for physical interactions. Rest assured that we have pulled out all the stops to make sure that the plans you had in mind will still be executed.
Many of us would have set things in motion regarding buying and selling of houses. Your dream home was just within your reach when the COVID-19 outbreak threw everything into disarray. But that does not mean things still cannot go as planned. That is where Conveyancers Sydney comes in. The Australian Registrars National Electronic Conveyancing Council (ARNECC) has announced that e-friendly solutions can be set up by subscribers to facilitate client authorisations via video conferencing tools and digital signatures. Identity verification too can take place digitally, provided that everyone involved takes responsible steps to record such meetings as evidence.
For many of us, these processes may seem strange and indeed, this is uncharted territory for all of us, but we have taken special efforts to smoothen the transition for you as much as possible. As instructed by the government, social distancing is imperative to flatten the curve but we are here to make sure that your real estate business does not get flattened in the process. Business continues as usual, albeit with some mandatory changes but if we really look at it, it is not so much of a change that we cannot adapt. Technology is something we use every second of every day, therefore extending these tools to conveyancing is only natural. In fact, it is simply a step up that has come a little sooner than expected, but nonetheless one that we have anticipated.
