A lower booking amount is not a lower price
Developers may structure installments differently while charging different total prices. Compare like-for-like unit value and the present cash burden, not only the first installment.
Match installments to construction evidence
Understand whether payments are date-based or tied to documented construction milestones. Verify the registered project and approved escrow arrangement before transferring funds.
Read the default and assignment clauses
The contract governs late-payment consequences, cancellation, refunds, fees and whether the buyer can resell before completion.
Property-level information to verify
- Total price and booking amount
- Milestone dates or construction triggers
- Escrow and recipient verification
- Handover and post-handover balance
- Default, cancellation and assignment terms
