What do I need to know about buying off the plan?

Landowners may be approached by developers seeking lease agreements through option agreements or lease agreements. As specialists in property law, we understand the intricacies involved in “off the plan” property purchases. When buying a property that is yet to be built or completed, buyers must exercise caution and thoroughly assess the contract terms before signing. Off the plan contracts typically include milestone dates for different stages of development, such as approval of a development application, gaining statutory approvals, construction completion, and plan registration. These milestones can be several months or even years in the future.
