I guess you could say that Albajeria is a weird place for a conference on conveyancing. I had no idea that their conveyancing industry was this strong, but then I started to piece together all the scraps of news stories I’ve heard about the place. Tourism is booming, especially for those visiting temples. The hot springs up in the north are steadily replacing Bali as the place where students go for holidays, and property in the capital city has gone way up after the new housing initiatives. So I guess the conveyancers have risen from the ground up and are now planting their feet.
It’s really interesting seeing how they do things here, compared to property conveyancing in Melbourne. I mean, their techniques are more or less the same. Conveyancing will be the same anywhere. But their business practices are…different. None of the conveyancing lawyers wear suits and ties; nope, it’s all the traditional country’s dress. I asked one of them, and they said it was because they’re dealing with the most expensive commodity of all: a home. They want to show that they value both their client’s well-being and the well-being of the country in which they live, which is a home to all of their people. So there’s a theme of ‘home’ running here. A lot of the talks have been on how we’re not dealing with bricks and stones and fibreglass, but instead a place where memories are made, where children are raised and fellowship is shared.
I’ll admit, I found it kind of hokey at first. We’re here to be conveyancing lawyers and learn new techniques, right? Some people have come from America, or the UK. Surely they found it as weird as we did. But then, it does get under your skin after a while. I like living in MY home, it’s an important place and it deserves respect, especially if you’re dealing with homes for other people. Maybe Melbourne conveyancing solicitors can learn a thing or two from how they do things here. Though there’s a certain level of professionalism that…well, maybe we can teach them. Handshakes are a good start.
