Schedule

Preliminary

To the purchaser:

The purpose of a statement under section 7 of the Land and Business (Sale and Conveyancing) Act 1994 is to put you on notice of certain particulars concerning the land to be acquired.

If you intend to carry out building work on the land, change the use of the land or divide the land, you should make further inquiries to determine whether this will be permitted. For example, building work may not be permitted on land not connected to a sewerage system or common drainage scheme if the land is near a watercourse, dam, bore or the River Murray and Lakes.

The Aboriginal Heritage Act 1988 protects any Aboriginal site or object on the land. Details of any such site or object may be sought from the "traditional owners" as defined in that Act.

If you desire additional information, it is up to you to make further inquiries as appropriate.

Instructions to the vendor for completing this statement:

means strike out or omit the Part, Division, Particulars or item if not applicable.

* means strike out or omit the option that is not applicable.

To the purchaser:

Right to cool‑off

(section 5)

You may notify the vendor of your intention not to be bound by the contract for the sale of the land UNLESS—

(b)you purchased on the same day as you, or some person on your behalf, bid at the auction of the land; or

(c)you have, before signing the contract, received independent advice from a legal practitioner and the legal practitioner has signed a certificate in the prescribed form as to the giving of that advice; or

(g)the contract also provides for the sale of a business that is not a small business.

2—Time for service

The cooling‑off notice must be served—

(a)if this form is served on you before the making of the contract—before the end of the second clear business day after the day on which the contract was made; or

(b)if this form is served on you after the making of the contract—before the end of the second clear business day from the day on which this form is served.

However, if this form is not served on you at least 2 clear business days before the time at which settlement takes place, the cooling‑off notice may be served at any time before settlement.

3—Form of cooling‑off notice

The cooling‑off notice must be in writing and must be signed by you.

(being *the agent's address for service under the Land Agents Act 1994/an address nominated by the agent to you for the purpose of service of the notice).

Note—

Section 5(3) of the Land and Business (Sale and Conveyancing) Act 1994 places the onus of proving the giving of the cooling‑off notice on the purchaser. It is therefore strongly recommended that—

(a)if you intend to serve the notice by leaving it for the vendor's agent at the agent's address for service or an address nominated by the agent, you obtain an acknowledgment of service of the notice in writing;

(b)if you intend to serve the notice by fax, you obtain a transmission report in relation to the sending of the fax.

5—Effect of service

If you serve such a cooling‑off notice on the vendor, the contract will be taken to have been rescinded at the time when the notice was served. You are then entitled to the return of any money you paid under the contract other than—

(a)the amount of any deposit paid if the deposit did not exceed $100; or

(b)an amount paid for an option to purchase the land.

Proceeding with the purchase

If you wish to proceed with the purchase—

(a)it is strongly recommended that you take steps to make sure your interest in the property is adequately insured against loss or damage;

(b)pay particular attention to the provisions in the contract as to time of settlement—it is essential that the necessary arrangements are made to complete the purchase by the agreed date—if you do not do so, you may be in breach of the contract;

Does the council hold details of any development approvals relating to—

(a)commercial or industrial activity at the land; or

(b)a change in the use of the land or part of the land (within the meaning of the Development Act 1993)?

*YES/NO

Note—

The question relates to information that the council for the area in which the land is situated may hold. If the council answers "YES" to the question, it will provide a description of the nature of each development approved in respect of the land. The purchaser may then obtain further details from the council (on payment of any fee fixed by the council). However, it is expected that the ability to supply further details will vary considerably between councils.

A "YES" answer to paragraph (a) of the question may indicate that a potentially contaminating activity has taken place at the land (see sections 103C and 103H of the Environment Protection Act 1993) and that assessments or remediation of the land may be required at some future time.

It should be noted that—

(a)the approval of development by a council does not necessarily mean that the development has taken place;

(b)the council will not necessarily be able to provide a complete history of all such development that has taken place at the land.
