Highly recommend Open House Conveyancing. They were very quick to reply to my online enquiry and within days of speaking with Rachael they had the property transfer completed. Everything was done online which was very convenient. They were the cheapest quote I received and provided excellent and efficient service.
Fees are very reasonable and are very professional. Made the process of selling very seamless and stressfree.. I'd defintely refer them to my friends and family.
Super efficient great communication all made for a seamless settlement. I felt really supported thank you Dennis. I highly recommend using Open House Conveyancing
I have used Open House Conveyancing for 2 property settlements in the past year and had a very good experience both times. Racheal and Dennis were easy to work with and very helpful throughout the entire process. They offer low, fixed pricing and I felt very comfortable that they had everything under control and covered everything including things I didn't think of or know to ask. Would highly recommend them!

Ashfield is an old town, with a long history. Before the arrival of the British, the area now known as Ashfield was inhabited by the Wangal people.
After the arrival of the first fleet in 1788, the city became urbanised and grew in popularity, due to its proximity to Parramatta and Sydney CBD. The first land grant in the area was made to Rev Richard Johnson in 1793 and all land had been granted by 1810.
By 1855, Ashfield had about 70 houses and 200 residents. However, the opening of the Sydney-Parramatta railway line that year, with Ashfield as one of its six original stations, led to a population boom. By 1890, more than 11,000 people lived in the suburb. By 2018, the population had exploded to 127,000 people, with most living in units.
The Ashfield and District Historical Society celebrates the history and heritage of Ashfield.
