Welcome back to another episode of the 360 Money Matters Podcast!
In this episode, Billy and Andrew draw from real client experiences to expose the hidden financial risks of off-the-plan purchases that most buyers never consider until it's too late. From valuation gaps at settlement to developer insolvencies during COVID, they reveal why buying property you can't see yet might be one of the riskiest financial decisions you can make.
Discover what you need to know before signing that contract and committing to a property that won't exist for another two years.
