The Forward Purchase Agreement (Real Estate) is a sophisticated legal instrument commonly used in Hong Kong's property development sector for pre-sale arrangements of properties under construction. This document type emerged from the need to facilitate property sales before completion while protecting the interests of both developers and purchasers. It is particularly relevant in Hong Kong's dynamic real estate market, where pre-sale of properties is common practice. The agreement typically includes detailed provisions for payment scheduling, construction specifications, completion requirements, and quality assurance measures, all aligned with Hong Kong's regulatory framework. It serves as a crucial tool for property developers to secure early sales and funding, while providing purchasers with legal certainty and protection for their investment in future properties. The document must comply with various Hong Kong ordinances, including the Residential Properties (First-hand Sales) Ordinance and the Conveyancing and Property Ordinance.
