There's a legal agreement that can permanently restrict what you do with a property, and most buyers don't know it's there until after they've signed.

A Section 173 agreement (under Victoria's Planning and Environment Act) attaches to the title and stays there forever. Sell the house, the obligations go with it. The new owner inherits them whether they knew about it or not.

What can it stop you from doing? Building an extension. Subdividing. Sometimes even landscaping, depending on the exact clause.

We check for this in every contract review. And it's free, with a 24-hour turnaround.

Three business days.

That's your window in Victoria to change your mind after signing a private-treaty contract.

Under Section 31 of the Sale of Land Act, you can walk away from most residential purchases within 3 business days of signing. It'll cost you the greater of $100 or 0.2% of the price. On a $750k home, that's $1,500 to exit a $750,000 commitment.

But there are traps. Auction sales have no cooling-off period at all. Neither do contracts signed within 3 days of an auction on the same property.

Unsure where you stand? Our free 24-hour contract review gives you clarity before you commit.

Finding a Section 173 agreement on a property title after you've committed is not a great position to be in. But it happens more than you'd think.

A Section 173 agreement is a legal restriction registered on the title in Victoria. It can limit what you build, how you develop the land, and what obligations you carry as the new owner. Some agreements also include financial contributions toward local infrastructure.

The fix is simple: get the contract reviewed before you sign anything. We do this for free, with results back within 24 hours.

That sinking feeling after you sign is more common than you think.

In Victoria, most residential buyers have 3 business days after signing a private-treaty contract to cool off. You need to give written notice, make your intent clear, and have proof of delivery.

The cost to exit is not zero. You'll pay the greater of $100 or 0.2% of the purchase price. But weighed against buying the wrong property, for most people that is a small price.

A few exceptions apply: auction purchases, contracts signed close to auction day, and certain commercial or company transactions don't get the cooling-off right.

If you are unsure, don't wait until midnight on day three. Get a free 24-hour contract review from our team today.

First home purchases come with a lot of unknowns, we let our clients know exactly what to expect and make the process easy.

Full review:
"We were recommended to this team by a family friend, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience.
We had a very tight 30-day settlement, which could have been incredibly stressful, but they handled everything with such promptness and ease.
What I valued most was their exceptional communication.
Every email was followed up with a phone call. Being our first home purchase, these phone calls gave me the opportunity to ask questions and get immediate clarity. The staff are professional, friendly and guided us through every step with total patience and reassurance.
If you want a stress-free settlement, I can’t recommend them enough!"
