The Property Transfer Office Limited is a specialist conveyancing practice focused on property transactions across New Zealand, with particular strength in Christchurch markets. Led by Karen Faalilo, a licensed conveyancer with more than 32 years of experience, the firm provides precise guidance from offer through settlement and lodgement with the land titles system, ensuring each step is compliant and clearly explained.

The firm has earned a reputation for a plain English, client friendly approach that prioritises honest, affordable service over large corporate scale. Karen Faalilo, the sole principal and owner, emphasises that the firm does not act for big corporates and aims to deliver reliable, personalised conveyancing for everyday home buyers and sellers, backed by professional indemnity insurance and NZ Society of Conveyancers standards.

In terms of client service, the Property Transfer Office offers flexible, face-to-face consultation approaches at its Christchurch base, provides fixed fee options for common conveyancing tasks, and uses transparent communication to keep clients informed about disbursements, timelines and next steps throughout the process.
