Pre-settlement Inspection
OVERVIEW
The pre-settlement inspection (PSI) is an opportunity for you to view your new property prior to settlement. This is your opportunity to identify any issues before you take possession of your apartment.
1 Year Defects Liability Period
OVERVIEW
In Queensland, the standard defects liability period for residential and commercial building contracts is 12 months from Practical Completion.
DEFECTS INCLUDE
• Scuff marks or scratches
• Cracked tiles
• Chipped or scratched flooring
• Scratched or chipped joinery panels
WHAT IS COVERED
During this time, the builder is responsible for rectifying any defects or faults that arise due to workmanship or materials. The period acts as a safeguard for both the owner and the builder - allowing time for any issues to surface under normal use, while giving the builder the right to return and make repairs.
OUTCOME
Any items identified during the PSI will be logged for action with the builder and the Sherpa Post-Completion Team who will arrange for rectification works to be undertaken. Our Post-Completion Team endeavour to have any defect identified during the PSI resolved in a timely manner.
OUTCOME
If an issue does arise, the builder and our Post-Completion Team will work with you to resolve the problem as quickly as possible. Our team will work with the subcontractors and suppliers to rectify appliacable items.
6-Year, 6-Month
Structural Warranty
OVERVIEW
In Queensland, builders are required to provide a statutory warranty period under the Queensland Building and Construction Commission (QBCC) framework. This warranty provides protection for homeowners against faulty or defective building work.
Building Management
OVERVIEW
Sherpa will retain the management rights of the building, including both short- and long-stay letting. This will ensure the integrity of the Flourish community endures.
WHAT IS COVERED
• Structural defects
OUTCOME
Our Post-Completion Team works with owners to ensure any issue is resolved as quickly as possible. Owners have statutory protections that require the builder/developer to repair. Sherpa is committed to the highest standard of customer service and will always meet its obligations to achieve this.
WHAT IS COVERED
Building management duties include:
• Securing tenants both short-term as well as for longer term rentals
• Ensuring the safety and peace of the building
• Being available to assist tenants and owners
• Recommend and/or organise maintenance
OUTCOME
Sherpa are committed to the satisfaction of the residents and are here long-term to assist owners and tenants. From recommending local restaurants to hosting pizza nights on the rooftop, our Concierge and Letting Teams are here to help.
“Symphony was something that ticked all the boxes for us. It seems like a really good project. Facilities wise, how attainable it felt for us - and location was a huge bonus as well, a hundred percent. Location was really at the top of our list, and it was a bright shining star in that respect.”
“When the opportunity came up at Symphony and the ability to watch the whole project grow from the very start to when it’s completed is really something that appealed to me. And, obviously, I’ve been supported by the whole team at Sherpa to make the whole process as easy as it could be.”
DAN HUGHES LPS GROUP FLOURISH SYMPHONY PURCHASER
“We’d been looking for the ideal location for a while and Flourish Amargo at Palm Beach really appealed to us – the beach and mountain views, and the price point. We bought off-the-plan and the process was seamless.”
“Sherpa properties are very aesthetically beautiful. Like a tropical oasis. The designs are fantastic. They really impressed us. And the amenities are second to none – with a wonderful wellness centre. Sherpa do all the little things really well.”
