Frequent Risk Signals

• Immediate Insurance Necessity: Under the standard REINT Contract, the buyer's risk begins the moment the contract is dated; if you do not have a building insurance policy active from that exact minute, you are completely uninsured against catastrophes.
• Cyclone and Storm Damage: Given the Northern Territory's climate, if a tropical cyclone damages the roof or causes flooding after the contract is signed, the buyer must typically proceed with the purchase and claim the repairs through their own insurance.
• Total Destruction Liability: If the house is completely destroyed by fire before settlement, the buyer is generally still legally obligated to pay the full purchase price to the seller, provided the property remains "habitable" or the damage doesn't meet the high legal threshold for rescission.
• Vandalism and Glass Breakage: Any malicious damage, graffiti, or broken windows occurring during the settlement period are the financial responsibility of the buyer, not the vendor.
• Theft of Fixtures: If high-value items included in the sale, such as split-system air conditioning units or pool pumps, are stolen after the contract date, the buyer bears the loss.
• Lender Withdrawal: If significant damage occurs and your insurer contests the claim, your bank may deem the security inadequate and withdraw your finance approval, potentially causing you to default on the contract and lose your 10% deposit.
