Frequent Risk Signals

• Forfeited Opportunity Cost: In a competitive Adelaide market, a seller's default can result in the buyer missing out on capital growth while their deposit is tied up, potentially pricing them out of the market if the sale falls through.
• Unrecoverable Out-of-Pocket Expenses: While the buyer may be entitled to damages, they often face immediate losses for building and pest inspections, valuation fees, and conveyancing costs that are difficult to claw back quickly.
• Specific Performance Litigation: If the buyer wants to force the sale, they must apply to the Supreme Court of South Australia for a "Specific Performance" order, an expensive and lengthy legal process that can take many months.
• Housing Instability: A major buyer's risk occurs when the buyer has already sold their current home or ended a rental lease; a seller's default can leave the buyer unexpectedly homeless and forced into expensive short-term accommodation.
• Finance Expiry: If the default causes a significant delay, the buyer’s mortgage offer may expire, forcing them to re-apply for finance at a potentially higher interest rate or under stricter lending criteria.
• Strict Notice Requirements: Under the REISA Contract, a buyer must serve a formal "Default Notice" correctly; any procedural error in this document can invalidate the buyer's claim for penalty interest or the right to terminate the contract.
