Frequent Risk Signals

• Forfeiture of Deposit: If you attempt a rescission of contract without a valid legal basis or outside of the cooling-off period, the seller is generally entitled to keep your full deposit, which is typically 10% of the purchase price.
• Holding Deposit Loss: Under South Australian law, if you rescind during the statutory two-business-day cooling-off period, you must still forfeit a small "holding deposit" (prescribed by law as $100) to the vendor.
• Re-sale Price Gap: If the buyer defaults and the contract is rescinded, the REISA Contract often allows the seller to sue the buyer for the "deficiency on resale"—the difference in price if the property eventually sells for less than the original contract price.
• Default Interest and Costs: Before a formal rescission for breach, the seller will likely issue a default notice, making the buyer liable for penalty interest and the seller’s legal expenses, which can amount to thousands of dollars.
• Form 1 Timing: While a buyer may have the right to rescind if the Form 1 (Vendor’s Statement) is defective, this right is lost once the sale settles; failing to identify errors in this document early is a major buyer's risk.
• Specific Performance: A seller may choose not to accept your rescission and instead apply for a court order for "specific performance," legally compelling you to complete the purchase at the agreed price.
