Conveyancing File Agent

The Conveyancing File Agent prepares and checks transfer and bond files from instruction to lodgement. It drafts deeds and powers of attorney, tracks FICA, rates clearance, transfer duty and compliance certificates, and checks the file against Deeds Office requirements, ready for manual lodgement or electronic lodgement through eDRS.

The difference

Indicative figures. We measure your own baseline in the first fortnight so the numbers you see are yours.

Fewer Deeds Office rejections

Rejections delay registration and frustrate buyers, sellers and banks. The agent checks names, descriptions, conditions and supporting documents before lodgement.

Every clearance tracked

Transfers wait on rates clearance, transfer duty receipts, bond cancellation figures and compliance certificates. The agent tracks each one and chases what is outstanding.

Ready for electronic lodgement

With the eDRS running alongside manual lodgement, the agent prepares files for either route so your practice moves with the Deeds Office.

Capabilities

Transfer and bond files checked and lodgement-ready, without the rejections.

Built for conveyancers, conveyancing secretaries, bond registration attorneys and property law firms across South Africa.

Deed and power of attorney drafting

Drafts the deed of transfer or mortgage bond and the supporting powers of attorney from the deed of sale and bank instruction, in the required Deeds Office format.

Title and deeds searches

Uses Windeed or Lightstone via your subscription to confirm ownership, title conditions, existing bonds, interdicts and the correct property description.

FICA for parties

Checks buyer and seller FICA documents, including company and trust records, against your firm's RMCP and flags gaps.

Rates clearance and transfer duty

Prepares the rates clearance application under section 118 of the Municipal Systems Act and transfer duty workings for submission to SARS, or confirms VAT treatment where it applies.

Compliance certificate tracking

Tracks the electrical certificate of compliance and any beetle, gas or electric fence certificates required by the deed of sale.

Pre-lodgement checks

Checks the full file against Deeds Registries Act requirements and your examiner checklist, and prepares it for manual or eDRS electronic lodgement.

How it works

From your systems to a result you sign off

The conveyancer checks and signs the deeds and preparation certificates, an authorised person submits transfer duty on eFiling, and the conveyancer lodges at the Deeds Office.

Deployment

Runs inside the tools your team already uses

The same agent and the same cited output, delivered three ways: through the AI assistant you have rolled out, on a model you host yourself, or inside your own software.

Model Context Protocol

In the frontier assistant you already pay for

We publish the agent as an MCP server. Add it as a connector and your team calls it from the chat they use every day, with no new tool to learn.
