Buying a New Property from a Developer
When buying a new property from a developer (or the developer's realtor) there are often no minutes to be examined, budgets are seldom realistic and there is often no Strata Council in place (the developer is the Strata Council).

Sometimes the property is not even built or only one part (phase) of it is constructed.

There are many pitfalls.
