Understand exactly what is being offered

Request the unit specification, floor plan, payment schedule, completion terms and the relevant project documentation. Ask which images are indicative and which features are included.

Plan beyond the headline price

Discuss the full payment timeline and expected ownership costs. Consider how your circumstances could change before completion and seek qualified advice on contractual obligations.

Compare alternatives on the same basis

Compare floor area, outlook, specifications and delivery assumptions. Avoid treating projected rents or capital growth as guaranteed outcomes. Ask your advisor to explain both the opportunity and the uncertainties.
