a quick clarification please for nsw?

a quick clarification would be apprecaited,

I usually offer unconditional contracts, so dont worry about cooling offs and clauses,

however one property im keen to buy, not sure of interest but it might be fair,

property is a ex comission house in NSW, that needs a mega load of work, the work required is set out in the ad, the agent who is pretty honest about these things has told me the work required (im quite chummy with the agent), all is good, however, there is a one unknown section to the house (that even the agent is not aware of) , if its minor work required there, thats fine, the only thing that wont work is if the entire section has to be replaced,

vendors wont accept a BP clause, as expected, as the house is very run down

we've semi agreed on a price and almost the terms, im wanting to put it under contract, and have a way out, finance clause might be a way but I dont think finance clause will be accepted, my understaninding is that hte s66w form that I will sign waives the cooling off period, essentially making the contract completely unconditional upon signing

is this correct?

the only other way I think about approaching this is to, make an offer, and in the 24 hours the vendors take to get everything sorted, the builder will get back to me on the extent of hte damage, but thats still risky

im trying to have a get out of jail option, plus I dont want to be relying on a builders schedule. Naturally Im not going to use the existing damage in a reduction of price or terms in anyway, due to the extent of the damage

any feedback would be apprecaited
 
This is a question for your lawyer.

s66 cert removes the statutory cooling off period, but whether you could still back out would depend on the wording of the contrac.t

agree, no special wording in the contract, but just wanted to calrify and see my options

Builder cant get in now to assess it and let you know?

ive organised 2 builders, but you know how they are with scheudles etc. etc.

similar properties in teh area sell for $230-$250k, this one is $165k with about $20-$30k work needed
