Buying off the plan can be a good strategy for first home buyers. You only have to put a deposit down and settle when it is completed. Most developers will require at least a 10% deposit. But in a property market that is correcting such as what is happening In Sydney and Melbourne, off the plan purchase presents risks.
There are several benefits for first home buyers purchasing an apartment off the plan.
Despite all of the benefits I mentioned above, purchasing off the plan can be a gamble. It is important that you are fully aware of all the possible pitfalls particularly those relating to lending conditions.
Buying off-plan can be more affordable and flexible for first home buyers. The only way to minimise the risk is to do your due diligence, have a reliable conveyancer review the contract and have a competent finance broker on your side.
