The normal procedure after finding a property you hope to purchase is to determine the full price, at this point terms of the contract can be agreed and the amount of deposit can be decided upon, this will depend on whether you are buying a new property directly from the developer or a resale. Normally at this stage a visit to the Lawyer is recommended, he or she will be able to vet the contract and take up contact with the seller. Once the contract is signed and the deposit paid, all terms & conditions and price are fixed.
