Important Considerations When Buying in Pre-construction (New Developments)

Embarking on the purchase of a property in pre-construction, also known as new developments, requires a thorough understanding of this unique process. Here are some key points to give you a clearer understanding:

What is a property in pre-construction?

A property in pre-construction is a real estate project that has not yet been built. Buyers acquire the property during the early stages, before construction is completed.

Also known as New Developments:

The term "new developments" is often used to refer to properties in pre-construction. These projects represent the creation of new communities, buildings, or residential complexes that are still in the planning or construction phase.

Advantages of buying in pre-construction:

1. Attractive Initial Price: Prices are typically lower in the early stages of the project.
2. Customization Options: Some developments allow customization of certain aspects of the property.
3. Appreciation Potential: The property could increase in value during the construction period.

Key conditions when buying in pre-construction:

1. Unilateral Contract: The developer sets the conditions, and the buyer cannot make changes.
2. Cancellation Period: Generally, the buyer can cancel the contract without penalties within the first 15 days.
3. Non-transferable: The property cannot be sold or transferred without the developer's authorization.
4. Payment Structure: The payment follows a standard format, with percentages at different stages of construction.
5. Contingency-Free Financing: If the loan is not approved at closing, the developer may retain funds paid up to that point.
6. Delivery Time: Typically, the property is delivered in 2 to 3 years from the start of the project.
7. Finishes: Finishing details vary, and the property may be delivered with certain basic elements.

Remember, buying in pre-construction can be an excellent opportunity, but it is crucial to understand and consider all conditions before committing.
