Singapore’s Most Trusted Conveyancing Lawyers
Conveyancing and Real Estate
Conveyancing is the legal process of transferring property ownership from one person or entity to another. It ensures that:
- The transaction is valid and enforceable.
- All legal documents and contracts are in proper order.
- The buyer obtains good title and that all encumbrances (e.g., mortgages, caveats) are addressed.
- Whether you’re buying your first home, selling a commercial property, or gifting an HDB flat, conveyancing protects your interests at every step.

Our Reviews
I would like to express my sincere appreciation to IRB Law LLP, especially the HDB Power of Attorney (POA) team, for their outstanding service. From the moment I reached out, the team was professional, responsive, and extremely efficient. They clearly understood my situation and handled my request with care, patience, and clarity. Despite the urgency of my matter, they prepared, endorsed, and completed the POA promptly without any delays. Their guidance throughout the process gave me great peace of mind during a stressful time. The team was supportive, well-organised, and always willing to help, which truly made a difference. Thank you, IRB Law LLP, for your excellent service and dedication. I highly recommend your firm to anyone seeking reliable and professional legal assistance, especially for HDB-related matters. Regards, Sumathi Sugumaran.
I had a great experience engaging IRB Law LPP POA services. The team was very responsive throughout the process. I truly appreciate Rani’s guidance—she patiently explained the notarisation requirements, especially as different countries have different notary procedures. Karell also kept me updated and followed up on the endorsement status, which was very helpful. I highly recommend their services to anyone who requires an HDB Power of Attorney, especially if you’re managing it from overseas.
