We recently used OH Conveyancing for both the sale of our property and the purchase of our new home, and couldn't be happier with the service we received. Racheal and Dennis stepped in to help us at very short notice and made the process feel straightforward and manageable. They were always quick to respond to our questions, kept us informed along the way, and were a pleasure to deal with from start to finish. Both settlements went through smoothly, and we really appreciated their support, professionalism, and attention to detail throughout. We would happily recommend Racheal, Dennis, and the team at OH Conveyancing to anyone needing conveyancing services.
We recently sold our Sydney property while travelling overseas and used Dennis from Open House Conveyancing as our solicitor. Initially, we were concerned about meeting Dennis in person as it was an online conveyancing service, in case any complex issues arose. However, the service was incredibly professional and everything went smoothly. It was our first remote property sale, and Dennis explained the contract, process, and costs thoroughly. I truly appreciate his service and will definitely recommend Open House Conveyancing to friends.
Open House Conveyancing made buying an apartment for my father feel so much less overwhelming. Their knowledge around strata was incredible — they picked up details we never would have thought to look into ourselves and explained everything in a way that actually made sense. From contracts to settlement, they were supportive, responsive and genuinely trustworthy the entire way through. Having a team that knowledgeable about the whole home buying process gave us so much confidence. Couldn’t recommend them more highly.
Hi - overall they delivered what they said they would when they would. They corresponded in a clear and pleasant manner, Dennis Garra was our contact and we were very happy with our interactions with him. We will certainly use them again and yes, I would recommend Dennis from this company. Cost wise very competitive.
I had an excellent experience working with Dennis Garra and Racheal Garra from Open House Conveyancing. They are highly knowledgeable and clearly very experienced in what they do, which gave me great confidence throughout the entire process. What really stood out to me was their communication — they were always responsive, professional, and especially helpful when speaking over the phone. They took the time to explain everything clearly and made sure I was comfortable at every step. I highly recommend Dennis and Racheal to anyone looking for reliable, honest, and efficient conveyancing services.
Fast, friendly, responsive and informative. Thanks so much for your help.
