Hi all,
Looking to transfer my mortgage from ASB to Westpac (I have moved my mortgages before, but never to Westpac) and my lawyer is asking for a pre-settlement disclosure on the apartment.
I have never been asked for a pre-settlement disclosure before, and do not know why this is being requested. I have outlined that I have not had this requested before (I have gone back to this lawyer, after using a different lawyer the previous move) however there has been no further clarity on why this is being requested. The cost is quite substantial ($575 in this case) so as you can all understand I would like to avoid this cost.
Has anyone had this come up before? I cannot see anywhere this being a regular request, nor does the purpose of pre-settlement disclosure meet the task of transferring mortgages held by the same entity with ASB over to an agreement with the same entity and Westpac.
Thank you all.
