Strata contract review

Buying an apartment, townhouse or villa in NSW means a strata contract — and a stack of documents most buyers never read. Torri reads it for you, in plain English.

Why a strata contract takes more reading

Buying an apartment, townhouse, villa or duplex in NSW means buying into a strata scheme — and the contract comes with a thick stack of documents most buyers flick straight past. The contract of sale sets out the special conditions, the prescribed documents and the planning certificate; behind it sit the by-laws and the scheme's finances that shape what living there is actually like.

It's easy to sign without really knowing what you've agreed to, or what to ask about the building you're buying into.
