Frequent Risk Signals

• Forfeiture of Deposit: If you, as the buyer, breach the Victoria property contract (e.g., fail to settle on time or can't secure finance), the vendor may be entitled to keep your entire deposit as liquidated damages, even if their actual loss is less.
• Additional Damages: While the deposit is often the primary form of liquidated damages, the Section 32 / REIV contract may allow the vendor to pursue further losses if the deposit doesn't cover their actual damages, such as re-selling costs or price differences.
• Strict Timeframes: Victoria property contracts, particularly the Section 32 / REIV form, often have strict settlement periods. Missing these deadlines, even by a day, can trigger a breach and the application of liquidated damages.
• Legal Costs: Beyond the damages themselves, breaching the contract can lead to significant legal costs if the vendor needs to enforce the liquidated damages clause or terminate the agreement.
• Loss of Opportunity: As a buyer, if you breach and the contract is terminated, you lose the opportunity to purchase the property and may face a competitive market to find a new home, potentially at a higher price.
• Unforeseen Circumstances: Even if your default is due to an unforeseen event (like a sudden change in personal circumstances), the liquidated damages clause in your Victoria property contract will still apply unless specific protective clauses were negotiated.
