So when you pay a deposit into the REAs trust account for a property, do they earn the interest on it? Is this why some agents push for higher deposits?
Similarly, when you transfer funds to conveyancers for settlement, do they keep the interest earned here as well?
Can be a reasonable amount of money depending on circumstances - if the REA or conveyancer keep the interest, I imagine they'd earn a nice amount of money from this (for nothing).
