    I bought an off plan land, on the contract it says that vendor can extend the sunset date by maximum of 12 months, now the sunset date expired already and the vendor did not extend it fortunately, can i rescind now? if yes, can the vendor extend it after my recession?

    Thanks,

    Ash

    Impossible to say without seeing contract. Get legal advice

    You probably could, but seek legal advice
