Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about New South Wales property contract review
Does ContractLens replace a conveyancer for NSW property purchases?
No. ContractLens is a pre-purchase screening tool that helps you decide whether a contract is worth a full conveyancer review. It identifies red flags early so you can make an informed decision before spending $300+ on legal review for a property you may not buy.
What is a Section 10.7 certificate and why does it matter?
A Section 10.7 certificate (formerly Section 149) is issued by the local council and shows zoning, heritage listings, and development restrictions on the property. It can reveal whether you can subdivide, build a granny flat, or run a business from home.
Can I use ContractLens for NSW auction contracts?
Yes. Upload the contract of sale you receive from the agent before auction day. Our AI flags unusual conditions, missing disclosures, and hidden clauses so you can bid with confidence or walk away.
What cooling-off period applies to NSW property purchases?
NSW provides a 5-business-day cooling-off period for private treaty sales. However, if you buy at auction or waive it with a Section 66W certificate, there is no cooling-off period. ContractLens flags which regime applies to your contract.
