Yes, we strongly recommend that you have your contract of sale reviewed by a conveyancer or property solicitor before signing or exchanging contracts. A professional review can identify any issues, unusual conditions, or terms that may not be in your best interests. This step helps you fully understand your rights and obligations, minimising surprises down the track

Yes. You can request to include a special condition in the contract, making your offer or purchase subject to satisfactory review by your conveyancer. This means the transaction will only proceed if your conveyancer confirms that the contract terms are acceptable and all concerns have been addressed. This gives you peace of mind.

Before you buy a home or vacant residential land, you should be aware of a range of issues that may affect that property and impose restrictions or obligations on you, if you buy it. This checklist aims to help you identify whether any of these issues will affect you.

Before settlement, buyers have the right to carry out a pre-settlement of the property—usually within the week leading up to settlement day. This inspection allows you to ensure that the property is in the same condition as when you signed the contract, and that any items or repairs agreed upon have been completed.

The pre-settlement inspection is your opportunity for peace of mind, helping ensure you receive the property as promised in the contract

The Real Estate SALE agent is act in the seller’s best interests — not the buyer’s.

What that means for you

Their job is to get the highest price for the seller

They don’t negotiate for you

They don’t protect you, buyer from overpaying

They don’t work for your outcome

Even if they seem helpful, their obligation is to the seller.

Having independent legal representation means someone is actually on your side, protecting your interests before you sign anything

A ‘Section 32’ statement, also known as a ‘Vendor’s Statement’, is a document that must be provided by the seller to the buyer before a property contract is signed in Victoria. This document is required under the Sale of Land Act 1962 and is designed to disclose key information about the property that may affect a buyer’s decision. The Section 32 will include details such as title information, mortgages, easements, zoning, rates, outgoings, and, when relevant, information about building permits or works under the Building Act.

The purpose of the Section 32 is to ensure buyers are fully informed about any issues or restrictions associated with the property. If a Section 32 statement is incomplete or misleading, the buyer may have the right to withdraw from the contract. For this reason, it’s important that the Section 32 is carefully prepared and reviewed before signing any agreement.
