Caveats

What can I do?

In PEXA, you may lodge Caveats and Withdrawals as standalone dealings, standalone with Settlement or in combination with other dealings. A Caveat may reference one or multiple land titles subject to commonalit of proprietorship on title.

PEXA also enables you to electronically withdraw Caveats, with financial settlement. This feature allows the Caveator to receive cleared funds to your nominated accounts.

Visit Processing Caveats through PEXA in the e-Conveyancing Community for more details on how to lodge Caveats electronically. View the online training materials and practice completing a Caveat using a 5-minute interactive tutorial.
