Hi all, I am looking to buy a 1 year old house in sydney listed as offers >900k for my PPOR, last bought from developer for 840k. Has mortgage on it otherwise easement free. main question bugging me before proceed to offer is whether this is a divorce sale...
Anyway to find out if it is?
Have not asked vendor directly/bluntly as he is selling house himself without an agent and states that the joint tenant is his partner(i expected him say wife?) when asked about his relationship to her. But evidence on inspection day shows he is living in the house by himself (WIR only men's clothes) and a set of computer and some furniture seen in online pics posted have already been moved away already.
Is there any side ways around this like calling his lawyer to check? (i have the contract of sale) do lawyers have to declare the clients are divorced in the contract of sale?
Anyone experienced in these matters please comment...
