Phuket Off-Plan Construction Progress Evidence Before Each Payment

Key Takeaways

  • Read the exact milestone definition, notice procedure, inspection right and payment deadline.
  • Request dated site records showing the buyer's building, phase or unit rather than generic project activity.
  • Identify who certifies completion and whether that person is independent, qualified and appointed under the contract.
  • Compare visible work with approved plans, specifications, permits and any recorded variation.
  • Log incomplete work, defects, substitutions, delay notices and their contractual treatment.

Verify the contractual milestone, site evidence, certification, permits and unresolved defects before releasing an instalment.

Off-Plan Construction Progress Evidence in Phuket

A developer update or site photograph can be useful, but it does not by itself prove that a contractual payment milestone has been reached. Link every instalment to the signed contract and independently check material evidence.

Before releasing a progress payment

  • Read the exact milestone definition, notice procedure, inspection right and payment deadline.
  • Request dated site records showing the buyer's building, phase or unit rather than generic project activity.
  • Identify who certifies completion and whether that person is independent, qualified and appointed under the contract.
  • Compare visible work with approved plans, specifications, permits and any recorded variation.
  • Log incomplete work, defects, substitutions, delay notices and their contractual treatment.
  • Confirm the contracting entity and payment account before every transfer; retain receipts and bank evidence.
