Frequent Risk Signals

• Inherited Debt: Without a valid Land Tax Clearance, you could unknowingly become liable for the seller's unpaid land tax, potentially amounting to thousands of dollars under Western Australia law, even after settlement. This is a significant buyer's risk.
• Delayed Settlement: If the seller fails to provide a current and accurate Land Tax Clearance certificate in time, or if there are outstanding amounts, settlement of your REIWA Contract can be delayed, leading to penalties, additional legal fees, or even the contract falling through.
• Unexpected Costs: As a new owner, if you discover unpaid land tax after settlement, you may be compelled to pay it yourself to avoid accumulating interest and further penalties from the Commissioner of State Revenue, adding an unforeseen financial burden to your Western Australia property contract.
• Lender Complications: Mortgage lenders often require a clear Land Tax Clearance before releasing funds, as outstanding land tax can create a charge over the property. Failure to provide it can stall your financing and settlement process.
• Legal Disputes: If the seller breaches their obligation to provide a clean Land Tax Clearance as stipulated in the REIWA Contract, you might face complex and costly legal action to recover any inherited debt or damages.
• Property Charge: Unpaid land tax can remain a charge on the land itself. In extreme cases, the Commissioner of State Revenue has powers to recover outstanding amounts directly from the property, regardless of ownership change, impacting your security and investment.
