Conveyancing fees in NZ

Understanding conveyancing fees is essential when buying or selling property in NZ. For a basic transaction, expect to pay $1,400 - $2,000 when buying and $1,300 - $1,800 when selling. These fees cover legal advice, document reviews, and settlement management.

Costs increase for complex transactions, which can include:

- Using your KiwiSaver

- Buying a unit title or tenanted property

- Purchasing through a trust

Always request a price indication upfront, as final fees can often exceed $3,000.
