Before you sign a sale and purchase agreement, understand what you are agreeing to and ask your own lawyer to review it. The Real Estate Authority’s guide introduces the agreement, its terms and the steps that follow signing.
For other languages, accessible formats and the agency-agreement and buying-journey guides, visit REA’s guide library. These links go directly to the publisher, so you can check its current guidance.
The guide supports your understanding; it does not replace advice about your particular agreement. Ask about any terms, conditions, dates or obligations you do not understand before signing.
Our buying-a-home guide helps you plan viewings and questions. For documents about a particular listing, contact the salesperson named on that property. For office assistance, call 04 296 6900.
