About This Practice Area

What You Need to Know Before You Sign

A contract of sale is a binding legal document. Once signed, you are legally committed to its terms — including any special conditions, unusual clauses or onerous obligations that may not be obvious on a first read.

Orange Legal Group reviews residential contracts of sale and Section 32 Vendor Statements. Your first review is free when you go on to use us for the conveyancing. If you choose not to proceed, or you want additional contracts reviewed, the standard fee is $275 inc. GST (or $440 inc. GST for a priority same-day review).

This is not a tick-and-flick service. We identify real issues, explain what they mean in plain language and recommend any amendments or further investigations before you commit.

What We Help With

Section 32 Vendor Statement review: identifying what the seller is disclosing and what is missing

Flagging matters requiring further investigation — title, planning, building, pest

Priority option: submitted by 10am, reviewed by 5pm same day
