Product Description
Special Conditions Off The Plan
Special Conditions for Off The Plan Property Sales to be used when the vendor does not yet own the land on which the development is to be built. The contract is conditional upon the vendor acquiring the land by a particular time.

- The contract allows the vendor 27 months in which to acquire the land and register a strata plan.
- If the vendor does not acquire the land for whatever reason it may rescind the contract.
Off The Plan Property Sales suitable for both high rise and low rise residential strata plan project.
Changes to off-the-plan contract laws commence on 1 December 2019.
The new laws put extra disclosure obligations on vendors with the commencement of the Conveyancing Legislation (Amendment) Act 2018 and Conveyancing (Sale of Land) Amendment Regulation 2019. The new laws apply to off-the-plan contracts
An off-the-plan contract is a contract for the sale of a residential lot that has not been built at the time the contract is entered into.
The new disclosure regime and statutory remedies will apply to residential off-the-plan contracts entered into from 1 December 2019.
The disclosure regime does not apply to contracts that arise from option deeds that were exchanged before commencement. This specific exclusion protects the enforceability of the contracts that come from these options.
New sunset clause provisions (new section 66ZS discussed below) will apply to all off-the-plan contracts, irrespective of whether they were signed before or after commencement.
