Here at McCloy Group we establish a trusted presence within each individual community creating places in which people love to live. The company values community focused living where people feel safe and secure in friendly neighbourhoods. Our communities are geared towards owner occupiers and buyers express confidence in our projects and the capital growth they promise. Many people buy their family home in our communities and stay within the community when it’s time to upsize. In order to ensure this continues we have implemented a clear ‘Steps to Purchase’ guide as follows:

STEP 1 – RESEARCH

Do your research and find a suitable legal adviser whether it be a conveyancer or solicitor. Source financing options and a lender that is right for you. Speak to builders and find a home design that suits your budget and lifestyle.

STEP 2 – PURCHASER QUALIFICATION

To ensure you’re ready to secure a homesite purchaser qualification is required. Arrange a suitable time to meet with our friendly Land Sales team either in person or virtually to discuss your options and cover any relevant questions. Potential purchasers are not able to proceed to step 3, holding deposit without completing purchaser qualification step, this includes:

• Purchasers intention is to enter into a contract for a place of principal residence as an owner occupier upon the receipt of your Occupation Certificate.
• Purchasers shows intent to enter a build contract for the construction of a single dwelling home. View full Design Guidelines here.
• Confirmation that purchaser fully understands obligation to complete installation of driveway, letterbox and landscaping in accordance with Design Guidelines in turn adding value to your home and contributing to the pride of your community.

STEP 3 – HOLDING DEPOSIT

Select your dream homesite and secure it with a $1,500 holding deposit once the Land Sales Consultant issues the sales advice. The deposit will be made by electronic funds transfer or bank cheque. Our Land Sales Consultant will be able to provide you specific details needed for the bank transfer or cheque.
Should a purchaser not proceed, a $500 administration fee will be deducted and $1000 refunded.

STEP 4 – CONTRACTS

Once a sales advice has been completed by the Land Sales Consultant and the holding deposit has been received, the contract will be issued to your legal adviser. Contracts are usually issued within 2-3 days. You will have 21 days from the date the contract is issued to have a look through the sale contract with your legal representation.

STEP 5 – EXCHANGE

Contracts should be exchanged as soon as practically possible within 21 days from the date of issue. If contracts are not exchanged within this period, the lot will be placed back on market and made available to other purchasers.

If the land is not yet registered, you will only need to pay the balance of your 5% deposit less your $1500 holding deposit. If the land is already registered, then a 10% deposit will be payable.

STEP 6 – SETTLEMENT

Once exchanged, contracts should be settled as soon as practically possible:-

• If the land is registered, settlement will be within six (6) weeks of the date of exchange.
• If the land is yet to register settlement will be within six (6) weeks of the date of exchange or 21 days from the date of registration, whichever is the latter.

The balance of your payment will be due upon settlement.
