Selling Real Estate
|
The Sale of Land Act requires a vendor (seller) of real estate to provide specific information about the property being sold to a prospective purchaser. This is what is known as a Section 32 Vendor’s Statement. Selling your own property can be very stressful. Aurora Australis Group Conveyancing will make Selling your Property Easy! |
