Off-plan property may be cheaper because you’re buying a property before it has even been constructed, but there are three major risks you need to be aware of before taking advantage of the lower selling price.
You can’t settle - when you first sign a contract, you may not have a problem with securing finance, but things can change. Legislation, for example, can become tighter on lending.

You will lose money - You pay premium when you buy brand new, so it can take a good number of years before the property is worth what you paid for it.
