Buying directly from a developer
A developer needs the right to develop the land and approvals for the subdivision. Before paying, ask to see the parent title deed, the subdivision permit, the development permit, the approved layout plan, engineering drawings and approvals, and a compliance certificate where applicable.
Buying from someone who bought from a developer
Here you are stepping into the first buyer's rights. Ask for the original agreement of sale with the developer, any later agreement of sale, proof of full payment to the developer, and the cession documents or supporting records.
Check the ground too
Approvals on paper should match what is happening on site: pegs, roads and services. A site visit can confirm the stand exists where the layout plan says it does, but it does not replace legal searches.
