The property is usually at a risk of the Buyer from 5pm on the Business Day after the date of the Contract.  We strongly recommend that Buyers take out insurance cover to protect the property immediately after the Contract has been signed by both parties.

If you are obtaining Finance, your bank will need to be noted on the Policy as First Mortgagee.

The Seller has a continuing obligation until settlement to take reasonable care of the property.
