WHAT WE HANDLE
What a review covers
The Contract of Sale
We read every clause, check the deposit, settlement period and special conditions, and flag anything unusual or risky before you commit.
The Section 32
We check the vendor’s statement for title issues, easements, owners corporation details, planning overlays and anything that could affect the property.
Plain-English advice
We don’t just send a report. We explain what each issue means for you and what to do about it, so you can sign with confidence.

WHEN TO REVIEW
When should you get a review?
Buying at auction
Auction purchases have no cooling-off period, so the contract must be reviewed before you bid. We can turn it around fast.
Buying privately
With a private sale you usually have a short cooling-off period. Get the contract checked before it runs out.
Not sure yet
Found a place you like but haven’t committed? Send us the contract and we’ll tell you what you’d be signing up for.
