How do I choose an off-plan project with lower risk?

To reduce risk, start by checking the developer and its delivery history, then review project registration and the clarity of the SPA, and only after that assess area and product type.
A relatively lower-risk project sits in a location with understandable demand, comes from a developer capable of execution, and offers a product that will still make sense at handover.
Risk never disappears completely in off-plan buying, but it falls when the facts are clear, the payment plan is sensible, and the exit remains possible if needed.
