A contract of sale and its accompanying Section 32 vendor statement can run to dozens of pages filled with legal language, planning references, and technical details. Without professional guidance, it is easy to miss something that could cost you thousands or lock you into unfavourable terms.
Our review goes beyond a surface check. We examine the title for easements, restrictive covenants, and caveats that could limit how you use the property.
We verify that the Section 32 meets all disclosure requirements under Victorian law, because if it does not, you may have the right to rescind — but only if you know about it before signing.
We assess special conditions, sunset clauses, and settlement terms to ensure they are reasonable and in your favour. If we identify concerns, we explain them clearly and advise you on whether to negotiate, proceed, or walk away.

Frequently Asked Questions

It is far cheaper to get advice before signing than to deal with issues afterwards.

We understand that property transactions often move quickly, especially before auctions. We offer same-day and next-day contract reviews to ensure you have professional advice before you need to make a decision.
Common issues include undisclosed easements, restrictive covenants, planning overlays that limit future development, incomplete Section 32 disclosures, unfavourable special conditions, and title defects. Identifying these early gives you the opportunity to negotiate or walk away.
Yes, and we strongly recommend it. Since there is no cooling-off period for auction purchases, you should have the contract and Section 32 reviewed before auction day. We can typically turn around a pre-auction review within 24 to 48 hours.
