At Robbins Watson Solicitors your “off the plan” purchase will be handled by an experienced property lawyer from start to finish, NOT paralegal, legal assistant or law graduate, no exceptions.
An “off the plan” contract is typically prepared by the developer’s solicitor and usually includes specific provisions and clauses which are tailored to benefit the developer, not you as the buyer. It is essential that you sit down with one of our expert property lawyers to have the “off the plan” contract reviewed and explained to you prior to signing so that you understand the implications of sunset clauses, developer’s termination rights, the unpredictable dynamics of the construction industry, and payment of deposits, just to name a few.
Without being properly advised of your rights in relation to an “off the plan” contract, you run the risk of a developer taking years and years to complete a project, all while holding your deposit monies in trust. A simple mistake or omission along the way can result in significant financial and legal ramifications, which is why it is so important to seek the expertise of our dedicated team of property lawyers at Robbins Watson Solicitors.
Our dedicated team of property lawyers will guide you through your Contract, protect your rights, manage your obligations, and settle your “off the plan” purchase smoothly and efficiently. We strive to support our clients through what is often the biggest investment of their lives, by providing clear, concise and timely advice. We liaise regularly with the developer’s solicitor and sales agent, and your broker and bank to ensure settlement goes off without a hitch.
