I'm currently selling a property, in which a contract has been signed and we are past the cooling off periods. It is yet to settle. I don't consider the property "sold". I consider it "sold" when it is no longer mine and it is someone elses.
And here is my problem. Considering that the buyer and myself are contracturally binded to buy/sell the property, anything could happen before settlement. And I've learnt that sometimes it's hard to FORCE someone to do something regardless of what is right or wrong, or in a contract or otherwise. Considering it has taken a LOT of time/effort/stuff around to get this far, is it reasonable for the listing to stay in the for sale section (on www.realestate.com.au) until it is actually SOLD? It may mean the difference between an fresh "interested" party getting in the cue in case something happens, vs them not getting in the cue at all because they believe it is sold......for example.
Am I being fussy? Double dipping? Unreasonable? Over cautious?
