Frequent Risk Signals

• Premature Release: If the deposit is released to the seller early (e.g., to fund their next purchase) and the sale then falls through due to a seller's default or unforeseen issues, recovering your money can become a complex and lengthy legal battle in Western Australia.
• Seller Insolvency: Should the seller become bankrupt or insolvent after the deposit's release but before settlement, your funds might be lost or tied up indefinitely, as they are no longer held safely in a trust account. This is a significant buyer's risk.
• Contract Breach: If the seller breaches the REIWA Contract after the deposit has been released, pursuing compensation or the return of your deposit can be more difficult if the funds are no longer readily accessible in trust.
• Unmet Conditions: The REIWA Contract often stipulates conditions for deposit release (e.g., finance approval, building inspection). Releasing the deposit before these conditions are truly satisfied exposes you to substantial risk if the deal subsequently collapses.
• Dispute Resolution: In the event of a dispute over the sale, if the deposit has already been released, you lose the leverage of having the funds held in a neutral trust account, potentially making resolution harder and more costly.
• Total Loss of Capital: If the seller spends the released funds and then fails to complete the sale or becomes insolvent, the buyer faces a significant buyer's risk of losing their entire deposit with no easy way to recover it.
