Frequent Risk Signals

• Total Financial Loss: Under the standard REINT Contract, if you default on the purchase, the seller is generally entitled to forfeit your entire deposit (usually 10% of the purchase price) without needing to prove they suffered an actual loss.
• Liability for Resale Deficiency: If the seller terminates the contract and resells the property for a lower price within a specific period, they can sue you for the difference in price plus all costs of the second sale, over and above the forfeited deposit.
• Time of the Essence: In the Northern Territory, time is "of the essence," meaning that missing a settlement deadline by even a few minutes can trigger a default notice and put your deposit at immediate risk.
• Unconditional Commitment: Once the cooling-off period expires or is waived, your deposit is no longer protected; if your bank fails to provide funds on settlement day, the seller has the immediate right to commence forfeiture proceedings.
• Daily Default Interest: Beyond losing the deposit itself, you may be liable for significant daily interest penalties calculated from the original settlement date until the contract is officially terminated by the seller.
• Legal and Agency Costs: The seller can often use the forfeited funds to cover their legal fees and the real estate agent’s commission, making it extremely difficult to negotiate the return of any portion of the money.
