Frequent Risk Signals

• Forfeiture of Deposit: If you, as the buyer, breach the REIWA Contract and cannot complete the purchase in Western Australia, the seller may be entitled to keep your entire deposit as liquidated damages, even if their actual losses are less. This is a significant buyer's risk.
• Additional Costs: Beyond losing your deposit, the REIWA Contract in Western Australia may stipulate other specific costs or fees you are liable for if you default, increasing your overall financial exposure.
• Seller's Right to Resell: The seller can terminate the Western Australia property contract and resell the property. If they incur losses (e.g., selling for a lower price), the liquidated damages clause might allow them to pursue you for the difference, on top of retaining your deposit.
• Legal Action: While designed to avoid court, a dispute over whether the liquidated damages are a genuine pre-estimate of loss or an unconscionable penalty can still lead to costly legal proceedings under Western Australia law.
• Loss of Opportunity: If you pull out of a deal due to unforeseen circumstances, you risk losing your deposit and potentially other agreed damages, preventing you from using that capital for another property opportunity.
• Default Interest Rates: Under the standard REISA Contract terms, if you fail to settle on the scheduled date, the vendor can charge daily interest on the unpaid balance of the purchase price, often at a rate significantly higher than current bank interest rates.
