Is buying a new developer project the same process as buying a subsale home?
No. First identify the legal transaction and the actual unit, not just the word 'new'. A regulated housing-developer purchase requires checks on the developer and sales permit, applicable SPA and payment stages. Subsale focuses on the current owner's title, existing obligations, agreed condition and completion arrangements.
What to do next
- Confirm whether this is a developer sale, owner subsale or rental, and whether the unit is built or under construction.
- Ask a solicitor which legislation/SPA applies; check current developer permits and plans or the subsale title documents as appropriate.
- Compare all cash costs, financing/release stages and contractual possession requirements before choosing a route.
Do not apply a residential developer rule automatically to every commercial or industrial deal. A completed project or new advertisement is not proof of a new-launch sale.

Where should I start before buying?
Clarify how you will use the property, your preferred area and timing. Work out available cash and a comfortable monthly budget before shortlisting. Use the buying workflow to check each preparation step.
