The Deed of Sale of Real Property is a fundamental legal instrument in Australian property transactions, used when transferring ownership of real estate from one party to another. This document is essential for both residential and commercial property transactions across all Australian states and territories, though specific requirements may vary by jurisdiction. The deed must be prepared in accordance with state-specific property and conveyancing legislation, and typically includes comprehensive details about the property, parties involved, purchase price, settlement arrangements, and various warranties and obligations. It differs from a standard contract of sale as it is executed as a deed, providing additional legal protections and a longer limitation period for enforcement. The document is particularly important as it forms the basis for the property transfer in the Torrens Title system and must be lodged with the relevant state land registry.
