Subdivisions: Off-the-Plan Sales

With demand for properties high and much development in progress, sales for property off the plan are now a common practice. But sellers, purchasers, lenders and their lawyers need to proceed with care – off-the-plan sales add complexity to the conveyancing process. 

This webinar will take a practical approach in considering some of the key matters in this area, including:

  • practical aspects about the property and the development, such as project progress and market conditions;
  • the pre-sale agreement, particularly key clauses;
  • additional considerations if the property is a unit title and/or an incorporated society is involved; 
  • issues that commonly arise, such as delay and defects; and
  • red flags to which you should be attuned.

Relevant cases and examples will be used to illustrate key points.

Registrants are invited to submit questions in advance of the webinar, to [email protected].

For this webinar, PPT slides will be provided.
