Hidden Risks in Buying Property | Lawyer Explains All

Описание: Buying or selling a property isn’t just about finding the right price it’s about understanding the legal risks that can cost you thousands if something goes wrong.

In this episode, Hayder Shkara sits down with Vanessa Anderson from CJC Law, an experienced Queensland conveyancer, to unpack what really happens behind the scenes of a property transaction and the mistakes buyers and sellers often don’t realize until it’s too late.

We cover:
• What happens if you find problems after settlement
• Why smoke alarm compliance, insurance, and disclosure matter
• The truth about building and pest reports (what’s major vs what’s minor)
• What delays in settlement mean and when you could lose your deposit
• Real examples of deals going wrong (fires, insurance issues, early possession disasters)
• How scams and fake emails can derail a transaction
• Why poorly drafted special conditions can cause disputes at settlement

Vanessa also explains unique Queensland contract clauses including when risk transfers to the buyer, why insurance can make or break a deal, and what legal remedies (if any) exist when things go wrong.

Whether you’re a first-home buyer, investor, seller, or industry professional, this episode is packed with practical insight that could save you time, money, and stress.
