Frequent Risk Signals

• Paying the wrong account: If you mistakenly transfer your deposit to a fraudulent account (due to a phishing scam) or directly to the seller instead of the nominated REIQ trust account, you face the ultimate buyer's risk of losing your entire deposit and breaching the contract.
• Late deposit payments: Under Queensland law, failing to clear funds into the specified trust account by the exact time and date listed in the contract gives the seller the immediate right to terminate the sale and sue for damages.
• Unlicensed deposit holders: Entrusting your money to an entity that is not a legally registered Queensland real estate agent or law firm strips away the strict statutory protections offered by the Property Occupations Act 2014 (Qld).
• Bank transfer delays: International transfers or standard bank processing times can cause funds to arrive in the trust account after the deadline, which immediately triggers a default under standard REIQ terms.
• Disputes over released funds: If a contract crashes and both parties claim the deposit, the trust account holder cannot legally release the money until both the buyer and seller sign a mutual release, or a Queensland court orders the disbursement.
• Forfeited interest: Unless specifically negotiated and written into the special conditions of your Queensland property contract, any interest earned on funds sitting in a real estate agent's trust account does not go to the buyer.
