BUYING OFF-THE-PLAN IN QUEENSLAND

BUYING AN OFF-THE-PLAN UNIT CAN BE AN EXCITING VENTURE. IT’S LIKE A SNEAK PEEK INTO THE FUTURE, WHERE YOU CAN SEE YOUR DREAM HOME UNIT TAKING SHAPE BEFORE YOUR EYES. BUT, AS WITH ALL PROPERTY PURCHASES, IT’S NOT WITHOUT ITS LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS. HERE ARE SOME KEY ISSUES TO KEEP IN MIND.

1. Understand What ‘Off-The-Plan’ Means

Firstly, let’s demystify the term ‘off-the-plan’. It refers to the purchase of a property before it’s been built. You’re essentially buying a promise of a home unit, based on architectural drawings and plans. It’s a bit like ordering a meal at a fancy restaurant based on the mouth-watering description in the menu!

2. The Contract is King

In Queensland, the contract of sale is the heart of an offthe-plan purchase. It outlines the terms and conditions, including the plan of the unit, the price, and the completion date. It’s essential to read and understand this document thoroughly. Remember, it’s not just a piece of paper; it’s the rulebook for your property purchase.

3. Cooling-off Period

Queensland law provides a cooling-off period of five business days for off-the-plan contracts. This means you can change your mind and cancel the contract within this period. It’s like a ‘try before you buy’ for your future home!

4. Beware of Changes to the Plan

Sometimes, the finished product might not match the original plan. Minor changes are usually allowed, but significant deviations can affect the property’s value. If your unit suddenly shrinks in size or loses its sea view, you might have grounds to terminate the contract.

5. Sunset Date and Termination Rights

Importantly you need to be aware of the sunset date (when the unit must be completed by and settlement must take place) and other termination rights that may be built into the contract.

6. Body Corporate

You are buying in a body corporate so you need to understand how your rights and obligations will effect you once you have settled your unit.

7. Completion and Settlement

The completion date in an off-the-plan contract can be a moving target. Delays can happen, so it’s important to have some flexibility in your plans. On settlement day, you’ll finally get the keys to your new home. It’s like the dessert course of your property purchase journey - sweet and satisfying!

Buying off-the-plan in Queensland is a unique experience with its own set of legal considerations. But with careful planning and a good understanding of the process, it can be a rewarding investment. So, go ahead and order that off-the-plan ‘meal’. Just make sure you know what you’re getting, and enjoy the anticipation of the feast to come!

At OMB our Property Law team headed by Accredited Property Law Specialist Simon Bennett will be able to assist you with your off the plan purchase.
