4. Contract Signing 

The Contract Signing Stage is where you sign the land contract and the build contract if you have been provided with a 2 part contract property. If you have been provided with a one-part contract property you only need to sign one contract.

​Our team will connect you to a Conveyancer to handle the legals for your land purchase.

​Lastly, at this stage, you pay your contract deposits.

The step that brings your dream of owning your first home to a reality.
The bank has now reviewed your home and land contract and has provided you with an Unconditional Approval - this means that the bank will fund your new home and you can proceed to construction.
