MGR Building Group — Contract Advice
What is Contract Advice?
Contract Advice involves the expert review and interpretation of building contracts to ensure that all terms are fair, clear, and compliant before signing. Whether you're a homeowner, builder, or developer, understanding your contractual obligations is essential to avoiding disputes and protecting your rights throughout the construction process.
We provide support across a wide range of industry-standard contracts, including those issued by the Housing Industry Association (HIA), Master Builders Association (MBA), and custom contracts drafted by private consultants or legal representatives.
Our role is to help you understand key clauses around payments, variations, delays, warranties, insurances, dispute resolution, and practical completion — so you can proceed with confidence and legal clarity.
