Frequently asked questions

Realestate Lens is currently a public Australian property-research website with educational resources, free calculators and an early-access waitlist. An iOS buyer-assistance app is planned, but it is not publicly available and the website does not currently accept property-contract uploads.

A general-purpose AI service cannot guarantee that property information is current, complete or tailored to the contract and jurisdiction in front of you. Realestate Lens is planning a more structured buyer workflow, but that product is not live and it will not replace independent checking or a qualified solicitor or conveyancer.

A solicitor or licensed conveyancer can give advice based on the actual document and your circumstances; this website cannot. The planned app is intended to help buyers organise documents and questions before that conversation, not decide whether a contract is safe to sign or replace professional review.

No. The website, articles and calculator estimates are general educational information. They do not account for your full circumstances and are not a substitute for advice from an appropriately qualified Australian solicitor, licensed conveyancer, registered tax agent or financial adviser.

There is no public app tier yet. The calculators and educational resources currently available on the website can be used without a Realestate Lens account or payment. Future app tiers and allowances have not been announced.

There is no current Pro plan or public app subscription. Final prices, plan limits, billing, renewal, cancellation and refund terms will be published before anyone can buy a plan. Earlier pre-launch price concepts are not a current offer.

The public website contains resources and calculators with different geographic scopes, which each tool or page should state. State-by-state app coverage has not been production-verified or announced, so no claim of complete national contract support is made.

There is a public informational website, but no public contract-analysis web app or iOS app. The current product concept is for iOS. A release date and any later web-app plan have not been confirmed.

Contract analysis is a planned feature, not a service available on this website. Its production AI provider, document flow, supported formats, risk framework, processing time and output have not yet been verified for a public release.

The current website does not accept contract uploads, so it makes no production claim about an AI provider, processing region, storage architecture or deletion timing. The privacy policy describes the website and waitlist as they work now. It will be updated with the tested production data flow before contract uploads are enabled.

Property Research is a planned app workflow for comparing selected location and property information. Categories, data providers, geographic coverage, methodology and update frequency remain subject to testing and licensing before release.

The planned Inspection Planner is intended to organise addresses, inspection times and notes, then help sequence a day. Routing provider, live-traffic behaviour, stop limits and availability have not been confirmed in a public production app.

There is no Realestate Lens app subscription to cancel today. Any future billing, renewal and cancellation terms will be shown before purchase and reflected in the then-current Terms of Use.

None on the current public website. The scope of any future document feature, including jurisdictions, document types, file formats and size limits, will be published only after production testing.

The planned product is intended to help organise a first read and prepare questions, but it cannot guarantee that it will identify every relevant clause, risk or consequence. Read the source document and obtain advice from a qualified solicitor or conveyancer before signing or bidding.

That depends on the jurisdiction, sale method, contract wording, timing and any waiver or certificate you signed. Cooling-off rights and consequences are not uniform, and auction-related rules can differ. Get urgent advice from a solicitor or licensed conveyancer who can read your contract; do not rely on a general website answer.

The settlement date is set by the contract and can reflect local practice, negotiation, finance and special conditions. There is no single national period that applies to every transaction. Confirm the operative date and any extension rights with your conveyancer or solicitor.

A Section 32 statement is a Victorian vendor-disclosure document required under the Sale of Land Act 1962 before a purchaser signs the contract. Its required contents and any rights arising from a defect are technical and fact-specific. Check current Consumer Affairs Victoria guidance and have the statement reviewed professionally.

Conveyancing is the legal and administrative work involved in transferring an interest in land. It can include contract review, searches, disclosure checks, finance and settlement coordination. Who may perform that work, and what they may advise on, depends on the jurisdiction and practitioner.

Requirements and available practitioner types differ across Australia, but independent legal or conveyancing advice is prudent before you sign or bid. A qualified practitioner can assess the actual contract, title, disclosures and your circumstances in a way a general website cannot.

Lenders mortgage insurance generally protects the lender, not the borrower, if a covered loan defaults and the lender suffers a loss. Whether it is required and how it is priced depends on the lender, insurer, loan-to-value ratio and borrower profile. Confirm the cost and effect in the loan documents.

Strata, owners-corporation or body-corporate levies fund shared expenses for a community-titled property. Amounts and categories vary with the jurisdiction, scheme budget, insurance, maintenance and special works. Review current budgets, meeting records and proposed special levies before buying.

Torrens title is a land-registration system, while strata or community-title legislation can divide ownership between a lot and shared property. The practical rights, levies and maintenance obligations depend on the title, plan, by-laws and jurisdiction. Have the title documents and scheme records checked.

Auction rules differ by state and territory. A successful bid can create an immediately binding contract, and statutory cooling-off rights are commonly restricted or unavailable in auction situations. Complete finance, building, pest, strata and legal checks beforehand and confirm the deposit and contract terms for that auction.

Transfer duty depends on the jurisdiction, dutiable value, property type, residency and eligibility for any exemption or concession. Use the website calculator only as an indicative estimate, then obtain the current figure from the relevant state or territory revenue office or your conveyancer before committing.
