Reviewing and negotiating the Contract of Sale: The Contract of Sale is a legal document that sets out the terms of the purchase, including the purchase price, any special conditions, and the settlement date. Our team can review and negotiate the contract to ensure that it is fair and reasonable and that you fully understand your rights and obligations. Once the contracts have been signed, and “exchanged”, then the contract becomes legally binding subject to a cooling off period.

Conducting Due Diligence: Due diligence is the process of investigating the property and its surrounding area to ensure that there are no hidden issues or risks. We can help you conduct due diligence by reviewing the contract, title searches, and any other relevant documents, and by conducting searches with local councils and other authorities. We always recommend conducting a Pest & Building Reports or a Strata Report (depending on the type of property you are intending to purchase) and we can assist you with the review of this report.
