Frequent Risk Signals

• Penalty interest rates: If you request a Settlement Date Extension, the standard Contract for Sale often allows the vendor to charge default interest, typically between 8% to 12% per annum on the outstanding balance, calculated daily until the property finally settles.
• Notice to Complete: Under New South Wales law, if you miss the original date, the vendor can issue a "Notice to Complete," giving you a strict 14-day window to settle while charging you legal fees (often around $300 to $500) for the cost of issuing the notice.
• Loss of deposit: The ultimate buyer's risk is failing to settle within the extended timeframe; the vendor can legally terminate the Contract for Sale, permanently keep your entire 10% deposit, and sue you for additional damages.
• Vendor's absolute discretion: Unless specifically negotiated into the special conditions before signing, the vendor has no legal obligation to grant an extension, meaning your request could be flatly denied, leaving you in immediate breach of contract.
• Resale shortfall liability: If the vendor cancels the contract and resells the property to someone else for less than what you agreed to pay, New South Wales property law allows them to sue you for the shortfall amount plus their extra real estate agent commissions and legal fees.
• Accommodation and storage costs: While fighting for an extension, you may lose your current rental lease or face unexpected costs for temporary housing and furniture storage, adding thousands of dollars to your overall expenses.
