Critical Risks to Consider


Quality of Construction

The final product may differ from initial promises, potentially leading to financial loss if the quality doesn't meet expectations.

Market Fluctuations

The property market can change between signing the contract and settlement, possibly resulting in paying more than the property's worth at settlement.

Delays in Completion

Construction delays can extend beyond anticipated timelines, complicating your financial planning.

Developer Reliability

Research the developer’s track record. A history of failed projects or financial instability poses a significant risk.

Contractual Obligations

Off-the-plan contracts can be complex, often containing clauses that allow developers to change specifications or cancel contracts without consent.

Essential Steps Before Purchasing


Conduct Thorough Research

Investigate the developer’s reputation and previous projects. Look for reviews and testimonials.

Review the Contract

Have a legal professional examine the contract, paying attention to the sunset clause and any conditions that allow changes or cancellations.

Inspect Display Units

Visit display units to assess quality and layout. Ask about materials, finishes, and potential changes during construction.

Assess Location and Amenities

Evaluate the property’s proximity to transport, schools, shopping, and future area development.

Financial Considerations

Consult a financial advisor to understand the purchase implications, including proposed levies and potential depreciation schedules.
