Control substitutions and buyer-requested changes with signed scope, drawings, price, programme and warranty evidence.
A conversation is not an approved variation
Record every developer substitution and buyer-requested change against the signed contract, approved drawings and specification. The variation should identify the exact unit, scope, materials, dimensions, price or credit, tax treatment, payment date, programme effect and authorised signatories.
Keep dated drawings, samples, correspondence, site photographs, invoices and inspection acceptance together. Confirm whether a change affects permits, common property, warranties, finance or the final area. Do not let an informal upgrade hide a reduction elsewhere. Review off-plan due diligence, developers and buyer service.
