In this episode of the Property Edge Podcast, we speak with Kylie Dillon, CEO of Realtime Conveyancer, about one of the most overlooked parts of the real estate transaction: settlement.

Kylie explains why conveyancing is still a friction point in the property journey, what today’s buyers and sellers expect, and how automation, digital workflows and smarter compliance tools are reshaping the role of conveyancers and agents alike.

If you're a real estate principal, sales agent, property manager, or PropTech leader, you’ll come away with a clearer understanding of where the industry is heading—and how to future-proof your agency.

What we cover:

-Why the conveyancing process often feels like a “black hole” for agents and clients

-How digital conveyancing and workflow automation reduce errors, delays, and compliance risk

-Why re-keying data is one of the biggest problems in real estate transactions

-The shifting expectations of buyers and sellers in a digital-first property market

-AML/VOI compliance changes coming to the industry—and what they mean for agencies

-How stronger communication between agents, conveyancers, brokers and lenders leads to better client outcomes

-What to look for when choosing PropTech partners (and what to avoid)
