AU Australia property term
Building Contract Variation
Western Australia
Plain-English definition
An agreed change to the building work, plans, materials, price or completion time after the original contract is signed.
Why this matters to a foreign buyer
Require the scope, price adjustment and time effect in writing before work proceeds. Repeated small variations can materially change the final budget and completion date.
