Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about Victoria property contract review
What is a Section 32 statement and do I need one reviewed?
The Section 32 Vendor Statement is a mandatory disclosure document in Victoria that sellers must provide before sale. It contains title details, planning information, building permits, body corporate details, and any restrictions on the land. Having it reviewed before purchase is essential.
Can ContractLens review Victorian auction contracts?
Yes. In Victoria, there is no cooling-off period for auction purchases or sales within 3 business days of an auction. Upload the contract and Section 32 before auction day to understand the risks.
What planning overlays should I look for in Victoria?
Common Victorian overlays include Heritage Overlay (restricts exterior changes), Bushfire-prone Overlay (may require higher building standards), Flood Overlay (affects insurance), and Environmental Significance Overlay. ContractLens identifies which overlays affect the property.
