Know Your Rights
Responsibilities When
Signing A Real Estate
Contract To Sell
Your Kapiti Home

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.
