Frequent Risk Signals

• Delayed Settlement: Under the standard REIQ terms, the seller must provide a clear, unencumbered title at settlement. A caveat prevents this, meaning your settlement could be delayed by weeks or even months while the seller argues with the caveat holder.
• Financier Rejection: If a caveat appears on the title before settlement, your bank will refuse to advance your home loan funds because they cannot securely register their mortgage. This creates a massive buyer's risk, as you may face default interest from your lender through no fault of your own.
• Contract Termination: In a Queensland property contract, if the seller is unable to remove the caveat by the agreed settlement date, you may be forced to terminate the contract. While you get your deposit back, you lose the time, money, and emotional energy spent securing the property.
• Unrecoverable Out-of-Pocket Costs: Even if you successfully terminate the contract due to a caveat, you generally cannot recover the money you have already spent on building and pest inspections, loan application fees, or your conveyancer's legal fees.
• Deposit Limbo: If the caveat is lodged by a major creditor (like the Australian Taxation Office) and the seller is pushed into bankruptcy, your initial deposit could be tied up in a trust account for months while the Supreme Court of Queensland untangles the seller's debts.
• Settlement Blockage: If a caveat is lodged after you exchange contracts but before settlement, the Registrar-General cannot register your Transfer, meaning you cannot legally become the owner until the caveat is cleared.
