What is PEXA and how does it impact my settlement?

PEXA benefits for purchasers

  • Faster Title Registration
Your name is registered on the title, usually immediately upon settlement, no waiting weeks for paper lodgement.
  • Secure Funds Transfer
PEXA uses encrypted bank-grade security to ensure your funds and data are safe. No paper cheques, no delays, reducing the risk of paper-based fraud.
  • Real-Time Confirmation
We’ll confirm when settlement is complete, usually within minutes. That’s your cue to collect the keys and start moving in.
  • Streamlined Stamp Duty Payment
Stamp duty is calculated and paid electronically through PEXA, saving time and reducing the chance of errors.

 

PEXA benefits to vendors

  • Immediate Fund Release 
Once settlement occurs, your net proceeds are transferred directly to your nominated bank account, sometimes clearing the same day, with no deposit delays or personal attendance at your bank.
  • Simple Discharge of Mortgage
Your bank’s payout is coordinated automatically through the PEXA workspace. We handle the timing and confirm when your loan is cleared.
  • Peace of Mind
There’s a clear digital audit trail. You’ll know exactly when documents are signed, funds are transferred, and title has moved.
