Off-the-Plan Property: Glitter or Gremlins?
The Attraction (And Mystery!) of Off-the-Plan
Buying property before the cement's poured can look like an insider hack—fixed prices, juicy stamp duty savings, and bragging rights about your new investment. But sometimes what you see on paper isn't exactly what lands on site!
What to Watch For Before You Leap
- Understand Your Contract: Avoid surprises—unless you like them, in which case, we recommend surprise birthdays, not surprise clauses.
- Research the Developer: Not every developer is as sturdy as their buildings.
- Check for Delays: Sometimes move-in day is more "wishful thinking" than "actual date."
Disclaimer: Not financial advice. Get an expert and do your homework—unless you want to "learn the hard way," which we do NOT recommend.
