Roost partners with Settle Easy to improve the apartment property buying experience

Settle Easy and Roost have signed an agreement to partner to provide national conveyancing services for Australian apartment buyers.

Melbourne-based business, Roost, is on a mission to make buying residential apartments and living in these complexes better and smarter. Roost takes the pain out of buying apartments by helping buyers connect with service providers who can help find any nasty surprises before you take the plunge. That’s where Settle Easy comes in!

One of the ways their expert conveyancers find red flags for customers buying property is by reviewing an important conveyancing document called a Contract of Sale. This review takes place before the contract is signed. At Settle Easy, this is offered as a free service where their conveyancers and lawyers trawl this document with a fine tooth comb and explain what all the terms and conditions mean, well before the buyers close their sale.

​​Apart from providing comprehensive contract reviews, Settle Easy’s conveyancers can also explain anything and everything buyers need to know about conveyancing including all the finer points about:

• stamp duty for first home buyers
• stamp duty concessions and exemptions
• buying property off the plan
• conveyancing searches
• what being ‘under contract’ really means
• the legal obligations of all parties involved in the transaction
• buying at auction
• your settlement date
• building and pest inspections.

The conveyancing team at Settle Easy helps buyers in tandem with a purpose built user-friendly platform where all conveyancing transactions can be managed and completed entirely online. Buyers don’t need to take time off work or meet face to face and they’re available to help 24/7 to make property purchases one of the easiest transactions you’ll ever complete.

Covid-19 lockdowns have highlighted the importance of online services like Settle Easy and Roost who have also produced an easy to use platform described as a virtual concierge. Roost’s platform is highly adaptable and allows its users to access and share information, services and people for individual apartment buildings when they need it.

By working with other customer-friendly, virtual property services, the property journeys of our collective customers are only getting easier – we’re here for that.

‘Settle Easy and Roost are two peas in a pod. We both began as proptech startups solving real life problems and making things easier for customers in different segments of the property sector. Digital service delivery in this market used to be a pipe dream, not anymore – the future has arrived.’ – Settle Easy CEO, Sam Almaliki

‘Any business that solves tangible problems with user-friendly technology in the property market should be applauded. This partnership means that even before our customers move into their new apartments, we’ll be able to make things easier for them via Settle Easy’s convenient and easy-to-use online conveyancing service – how good is that?’ – Roost Co-founder, Andrew Coates
