My builder is forcing to book HIA Session

Hi All,

I am in a situation where land sales people initially said that land titling will be done by 2019 year end but now it got delayed to April/May 2020 appx. I am still not confident that titling will be done by May 2020. My issue is the home builder which I signed PWC is forcing me to book HIA session even tough I told them that I am not willing to sign the contract until I get the clear picture of land titling dates. When signing with Home builders they had an offer " price lock till jan 2021". But I am afraid of signing the HIA contract. What would happen on HIA session? do we have to sign the contract on the same day? do you all suggest to book HIA Session with them? Please help me with your inputs.

Reality is that in 2021 you might end up with much sweeter deal or your builder can go out of business by then. Do not lock yourself in.

sure, thank you very much for your inputs. May be I will ask him not to call me again till land gets titiled.

yep, the rule of thumb is that if someone is acting desperately without any obvious reason, it is always better to pass

Consider getting a building lawyer to review your contact before you sign. For example the Metricon HIA contract I signed was very one sided, putting me at significant disadvantage when poor quality work was identified during the build. Many others have experienced the same disadvantage.

Sure Norfolk, can I walkaway from there and sign later on? Or do we have to sign on that day itself

Check the contract terms and if there is a cooling off period. Just don’t be pressured into signing a binding contract that you have not had time to check and consider.

If you are being pushed ask why and take care

Thank you very much for your inputs

Hi there, don't sign!

You can always get someone to do a building contract review too! Ask for a copy of the final contract at least a week before their "signing appt". How can you possibly read 80-100 pages of a contract in a half hour appointment, totally not fair on you. Take your time!

Manse Group are good for contract reviews.

thank you very much KSCAN84 Sure I will ask them to mail me a copy of contract before siging....
