Local conveyancing
Oran Park conveyancing lawyers, based locally
Our team works from LPC House on Fordham Way, in the Oran Park town centre, on the site of the old Oran Park Raceway. You can buy, sell and settle with us without ever visiting, but if you’d rather go through your contract face to face, we’re right here.
We’re a law firm, not a conveyancing-only business. Every matter is supervised by one of our Founding Partners, so if your purchase raises a wider issue (a family guarantee, a trust, an SMSF or a will) you can get advice on it from the same team.
What we act on
Conveyancing for every kind of Oran Park property
House and land packages
We review the land contract and the building contract together, so the timing, deposits and finance line up across both.
Off-the-plan land
Many Oran Park lots are sold before the plan is registered. We check the disclosure statement, sunset date and the draft 88B instrument before you sign.
Established homes
For resales we check title, the planning certificate, any restrictions on the land and the building report, then guide you through to settlement.
Terraces and townhouses
Attached homes can come with community or strata title, by-laws and shared costs. We explain what you are signing up to.
Selling your property
We prepare your contract, collect the prescribed documents and manage exchange, your mortgage discharge and settlement.
Investors and SMSF buyers
We act on investment purchases and on SMSF purchases with limited recourse borrowing, including the bare trust documents.
Local estates
Estates that we have extensive experience with
We’ve acted for buyers and sellers across the master-planned estates of the Camden and Macarthur area. Each estate has its own developer, design guidelines and 88B restrictions, and we know what to look for in each contract.
Oran Park Town
Oran Park. Developed by Greenfields Development Company in partnership with Landcom, with estate design guidelines and accredited builders.
Catherine Park Estate
Oran Park and Catherine Field. Developed by Harrington Estates, with its own building and landscaping guidelines.
Ascot Grove
Oran Park. We act on new builds and resales in the estate.
Harrington Grove
Developed by Harrington Estates, the team behind Harrington Park and Catherine Park.
Cobbitty by Mirvac
Cobbitty. An all-electric community of around 900 homes off Cobbitty Road, with Mirvac design guidelines.
Birling Estate
Bringelly. A master-planned community by Cameron Brae Group off The Northern Road, close to the new Western Sydney airport.
Gledswood Hills
Gledswood Hills, including releases such as The Hermitage by Sekisui House and Crest by Mirvac.
The Ranges
Gledswood Hills, on Gregory Hills Drive. Elevated land releases by Legacy Property, next to Gregory Hills.
Catherine Field
Catherine Field, part of the South West Growth Area, with several estates and land releases.
Evergreen
Spring Farm. A master-planned community developed by AVJennings, close to Spring Farm Town Centre and Narellan.
Figtree Hill
Gilead. Started by Lendlease and now delivered by Stockland. It sits in the Campbelltown Council area, so the planning certificate comes from Campbelltown, not Camden.
Buying in Oran Park
What Oran Park buyers should check
Oran Park Town is a master-planned community developed by Greenfields Development Company in partnership with Landcom and Camden Council. That brings real benefits, but it also means contracts here often carry rules you won’t find on an older suburban street.
Estate design guidelines
Contracts for new lots in Oran Park Town usually require you to build in line with the Oran Park Estate Design Guidelines, using an Oran Park accredited builder. Your house plans must be approved by the developer’s review panel before you lodge them with Council or a private certifier.
Read the current Oran Park guidelines with your builder before you exchange, because they can affect your design, fencing, landscaping and timing.
Restrictions on the use of land
Residential lots are burdened by restrictions set out in a section 88B instrument registered with the plan. These can control things like dual occupancy, fencing, building materials and what you can do with your front yard. On an off-the-plan lot you’ll see a draft instrument attached to the contract. We go through it line by line and flag anything that affects your plans.
Two contracts in a house and land package
Most packages are two separate contracts: one to buy the land and one with the builder to build the home. Each has its own deposit, conditions and termination rights, and the building contract needs to work with the land settlement date and your construction loan.
Transfer duty is usually charged on the land contract only, which is why packages can cost less in duty than an established home. That can change if the contracts are linked, so we check how yours is structured. For residential building work over $20,000, your builder must also take out Home Building Compensation Fund cover before asking for a deposit or starting work. Ask for the certificate of insurance before you pay anything.
Buying land that is not yet registered
If the lot hasn’t been registered yet, it’s an off-the-plan contract. You get a 10 business day cooling-off period, the seller must attach a disclosure statement and draft documents, and you must receive the registered plan at least 21 days before you can be made to settle. A developer can only rely on a sunset clause to cancel with your written consent or a Supreme Court order.
Registration dates can slip, so check that your finance approval and any rental or sale plans can cope with a delay. Our guide to buying off the plan in NSW explains your rights in detail.
The planning certificate and Council controls
A contract for a property in Oran Park must attach a section 10.7 planning certificate from Camden Council. It shows the zoning, which planning controls apply (including the Oran Park development control plan) and matters such as flood or bushfire affectation. In a growth area it is worth checking for future roads and infrastructure near the lot, not just the lot itself.
Finance and valuations on new homes
A construction loan pays your builder in stages as the work progresses. Your lender will value the finished home before approval, and a valuation below your package price means you need to cover the gap. Get formal approval for both the land and the build before the cooling-off period ends, or before you exchange if there’s no cooling-off.

Selling in Oran Park
Selling a home in Oran Park
In NSW your agent can’t start marketing a home until the contract is ready, so speak to us as soon as you decide to sell. We prepare the contract and order the prescribed documents, including the title search and the planning certificate from Camden Council. We also check whether any 88B restrictions or developer approvals need to be dealt with before you list.
Once you’ve found a buyer, we manage exchange, answer the buyer’s requisitions, arrange the discharge of your mortgage and settle electronically. Our selling a property page explains the process in more detail.
First home buyers
Help for first home buyers in Oran Park
Oran Park attracts a lot of first home buyers, and the NSW and federal schemes can make a real difference here. We check your eligibility and apply for any duty concession for you.
No duty up to $800,000
Under the First Home Buyers Assistance Scheme, eligible buyers pay no transfer duty on a home worth up to $800,000, and reduced duty under $1 million. For vacant land, the limits are $350,000 and $450,000.
$10,000 grant for new homes
The First Home Owner (New Homes) Grant is available for new homes up to $600,000, or up to $750,000 for land plus a building contract.
5% Deposit Scheme
The federal 5% Deposit Scheme lets eligible buyers purchase with a 5% deposit and no lenders mortgage insurance. Oran Park falls under the Sydney price cap of $1.5 million.
Help from family
If a parent is guaranteeing part of your loan, their lender will usually want them to get independent legal advice first. Our guide to guarantor advice in Oran Park explains how it works.
Eligibility and residence rules apply to each scheme. Figures are as published by Revenue NSW and Housing Australia at November 2026. See our guide to NSW first home buyer schemes.

FAQs
Frequently asked questions
How much does conveyancing cost in Oran Park?
Our professional fee is fixed and quoted upfront, and you can get an instant quote online. Searches and government fees are extra and shown separately. As a guide, searches are typically $300 to $400 for a house or land and $300 to $600 for a strata property.
Do I need a conveyancer or a lawyer?
Both can handle a standard purchase or sale. A lawyer can also advise on wider legal issues, such as a family guarantee, buying through a trust or SMSF, or a dispute with a builder or seller. All our matters are supervised by a lawyer.
When should I send you the contract?
Before you sign anything or pay a deposit. For house and land packages, send both the land contract and the building contract, so we can check that they work together.
Is there a cooling-off period on Oran Park land?
Usually, yes. Most private residential sales in NSW have a 5 business day cooling-off period, and off-the-plan contracts have 10 business days. If you rescind, you lose 0.25% of the price. There is no cooling-off if you buy at auction.
How long does settlement take on a new lot?
For registered land, settlement is usually around six weeks after exchange. For unregistered land, it depends on when the plan is registered. You must receive the registered plan at least 21 days before you can be required to settle.
Do I need to come into the office?
No. We can do everything by phone, video call and electronic signing, and settlement happens through PEXA. If you prefer, you can book a time to meet us in Oran Park.
Can you also help my parents with a guarantee?
Yes. If a parent is guaranteeing your loan, their lender will usually want them to get independent legal advice from a lawyer who isn’t acting for you. Depending on the lender’s rules, another lawyer in our team may be able to give it, or we’ll refer your parents to an independent firm.
Do you act outside the Camden area?
Yes. We act for buyers and sellers across NSW and in every other state and territory, all online.
