Common Issues with Buying a House and Land Package The NSW Property Show with Svetlana Thorpe

Today I’m interviewing Michelle Cirson, who is a practising construction lawyer with McCarthy Durie Lawyers based in Sunshine Coast. Michelle operates in building and construction law and has extensive experience in the construction industry.  She also used to be a builder’s contracts administrator so she understands how building companies work and run and what problems are likely to arise.
Michelle and I chatted about house and land packages and off the plan contracts and what is currently happening in the construction industry. Michelle talked about why it is advisable to engage an expert to review a house and land package. Michelle explained what are the main things that she sees can go wrong with building contracts. We also discussed how to conduct a due diligence checks for your builders.
If you are thinking of buying a house and land package or want to buy a land and engage a builder to build your house then this is a great episode to listen to.
