Tschirpig Conveyancing

Tschirpig Conveyancing is a locally owned and family-run firm established in 1996 by Trevor Tschirpig, offering professional property conveyancing services in Darwin and the wider Northern Territory. The business operates from its Coconut Grove office and serves clients across the Top End, including Palmerston, Katherine, and Alice Springs. With over 30 years of expertise, they handle the transfer of legal title for both residential and commercial property transactions.

The firm prepares and lodges all legal documents required for ownership transfer, undertakes searches of the Certificate of Title, and explains relevant title information to clients. They also perform adjustment calculations for council rates and levies, securely handle funds via their Trust Account, and liaise with financial institutions for mortgage discharges or new finance approvals.

They serve all suburbs in Darwin and Palmerston, as well as surrounding rural areas including Howard Springs, Humpty Doo, Marrakai, Batchelor, Adelaide River, Dundee Beach, and Wagait Beach. Their reach extends further to Nhulunbuy, Tennant Creek, and Alice Springs, covering a vast geographic area throughout the Top End.

Originally operating from Trevor Tschirpig's residence, the firm hired its first employee, Meggsie Muis, in 1997. Meggsie qualified as a licenced conveyancer in 2003 and has been the longest-serving staff member. The business later opened offices in Coconut Grove and Palmerston before merging back into a single Coconut Grove location in July 2022 under the ownership of Trevor's son, Ben, and daughter-in-law, Lucy.

The website highlights a personalised approach that sets the firm apart from others, focusing on dedicated service for local buyers and sellers. They describe themselves as knowledgeable in all aspects of NT conveyancing, aiming to act as a representative for clients during the sale or purchase of property.

The office is open Monday to Friday from 8:30 to 17:00, with Saturday and Sunday closed. Clients can reach the reception team by calling 08 8995 4900 or by sending an email to reception@sirpig.com.au during these hours.

The firm undertakes searches of the property's Certificate of Title and provides explanations of the relevant information found. They also organise required inspection reports when purchasing and respond to requests regarding unknown issues raised in those reports on behalf of the client.

When requests arise to extend timeframes for finance approval or settlement dates, the firm attends to making those requests on behalf of the client. They field requests from the buyer's representative and discuss them with the client before replying on their behalf to negotiate extensions.

The firm claims to be the largest Northern Territory conveyancing firm, offering solutions since 1996. They describe themselves as a trusted specialist with a vast client base ranging from first-home buyers and investors to commercial property clients.

The firm attends to settlement on behalf of the client by coordinating with the financial institution and all other required parties. They also advise the client when the property is settled and notify relevant bodies such as the council or body corporate regarding the transfer of ownership.

The firm notes that it is common for property owners to sell privately and provides a link to an online form for such transactions. They offer conveyancing services for both standard agency sales and private dealings between individuals.

The firm uses a Trust Account to securely handle funds for deposits towards settlement and any required inspection report payments. They also liaise with financial institutions in respect of funding the purchase of a property or discharging any existing mortgage held over the title.

The firm grew significantly by July 2003, leading Trevor to open a new office in Coconut Grove, followed by a second office in Palmerston in 2008. After a period of dual locations, the two branches were merged back into the Coconut Grove office in July 2022.
