Hi Everyone,
Hope you can help!
I have made an offer on a property which has been accepted and now I am looking to put down a 0.25% deposit, sign the contracts and enter into the cooling off period.
The problem is, the agency who I am purchasing from is about 1.5 hours away. Not that far, I agree but I am a bit snowed under with my day job at the moment. As such, I suggested for the interim that I sign the documents and scan/ email/ or fax them through. Agent is adamant I have to be there in person to sign them.
I realise 1.5 hours away is pretty close, but surely for interstate purchases, the buyer is not expected to fly all the way somewhere just to sign contracts?
Thank you!
