The Reservation Fee Acknowledgement Receipt is a crucial document in Australian property transactions, typically used when a potential purchaser wishes to secure their interest in a property before proceeding with a formal contract of sale. This document is particularly common in new developments, off-the-plan purchases, and competitive property markets where buyers want to demonstrate serious intent. The receipt formally acknowledges the payment of a reservation fee and specifies the terms under which the property will be held for the potential purchaser, usually for a defined period. It includes essential details such as the property description, amount paid, reservation period, and conditions for refund or forfeiture. This document serves as an important interim step between initial interest and formal contract signing, providing clarity and protection for all parties involved in the transaction.
