Regardless of
whether you are buying or selling, it is extremely important you are well-informed of the
details in your real estate
contract.
New
Zealand real estate contracts are legally binding documents, and they can often be complex and
confusing. Not being aware of the terms in your sales contract could cost you thousands of
dollars for repairs and inspections.
Know
what you are responsible for before signing the sale contract.
Can
the property be sold "as is"?
How
will restrictions and local council zoning laws affect the
transaction?
What
are the implications of clauses relating to, or subject to: finance, delayed settlement,
inspection, the sale of another property, or any number of other
issues?
Not
knowing the answers to these types of questions could cost you a considerable amount of money
when selling in Kapiti or anywhere around New Zealand.
If
you are in any way unsure, ask the real estate agent and talk with your solicitor before
signing a contract or agreement.
