Wait, do we need any conditions on the front page?
Where’s our due diligence condition?.
Your client signs an agreement with a due diligence clause in the further terms.
The front page has nothing ticked — no finance, no LIM, no builder's report.
Within the hour, you get the email:
"They haven't included any specific conditions on the front page.
Should we sign the agreement?"
You've already explained that a properly worded DD clause is a one-size-fits-all.
It captures finance, LIM, building report, valuation, and title — so long as the clause is drafted correctly.
The panic comes from the contrast.
The front page looks under-protected. It isn't.
The DD clause in the back is doing the work.
A properly worded DD clause covers everything — you do not need specific conditions on the front page.
We've drafted a DD clause wide enough to sit in any agreement and cover every condition your client would otherwise want on the front page.
Send it with the offer, and the panicked emails stop.
✔ A properly worded DD clause captures finance, LIM, building report, valuation, and title — front-page tick-boxes are optional.
✔ Use specific conditions when you're staggering timeframes or negotiating something non-standard.
