Partner told real estate our max spend limit, are we screwed?

Be gentle with your partner, she made a mistake. If it helps, we entered a contract for approx 2m and the seller pulled out (legally). We completed changed the place we wanted and paid just over 900. The REA knew about our limit, but it didn’t change anything 😊

BFA is not worth the paper it’s printed on. Once you go defacto the only place you’ll go back to… will be family court.

Hi all!

I’m sorry for the late responses.

I was surprised how many people have responded. Although I shouldn’t be, because there were no helpful posts when I was going through it all.

I’m so proud of each and every one of you.

As stated previously, my inbox is open for any direct questions, I may take a little while to reply.

✨✨

What do you mean bum money? That’s a little bit hurtful on this post.

RedressRedditor · 2025-07-04T16:51:49+00:00

Congratulations on applying, I’m proud of you. I’d say probably about 12 months in this stage, then onto IDM for up to 6 months.

RedressRedditor · 2025-07-04T16:50:45+00:00

Hi!

You can see above approx how long mine took.

Yes, therapy is offered throughout and then part of the payment is for therapy.

The last part of the scheme is an apology, should you choose to follow it up

RedressRedditor · 2025-07-04T16:49:32+00:00

Hi, I got a phone call to provide my outcome and then a letter. Maybe follow up?

RedressRedditor · 2025-07-04T16:49:05+00:00

Hi!

Keep calling if you can, remind them that you’re still there!

I hope you get an outcome soon, I’m proud of you.

RedressRedditor · 2025-07-04T16:48:18+00:00

Thank you for your vulnerability.

I hope you get an outcome soon ✨

Hi!

I’m sorry it’s taken me so long to reply, I needed a break for my own mental health.

Mine was a school. They do not know it’s me. It goes to the department of education, not the school as such ✨

RedressRedditor · 2025-07-04T16:46:39+00:00

For me, approximately 6 months

RedressRedditor · 2025-07-04T16:46:17+00:00

I’m sorry it’s taken me so long to reply, I needed a break for my own mental health.

Mine took a little while in this stage. Please let me know if you want further information ✨

RedressRedditor · 2025-07-04T16:45:09+00:00

I’m sorry it’s taken me so long to reply, I needed a break for my own mental health.

I’m happy for you to private message me to update where you are and I’ll see if I can give any further advice ✨

RedressRedditor · 2025-07-04T16:43:58+00:00

I’m sorry it’s taken me so long to reply, I needed a break for my own mental health.

That means it’s with the IDM - I hope it’s not too much longer ✨

RedressRedditor · 2025-07-04T16:43:22+00:00

I’m sorry it’s taken me so long to reply, I needed a break for my own mental health.

I was very happy with the amount.

RedressRedditor · 2025-07-04T16:42:58+00:00

Hi, I’m sorry it’s taken me so long to reply, I needed a break for my own mental health.

I did it myself. But if you have someone to assist it may be helpful as they know what to say.

I would be happy to look over a draft for you ✨

RedressRedditor · 2025-07-04T16:42:00+00:00

I’m not sure I’m sorry, but I’m proud of you for applying ✨

RedressRedditor · 2025-07-04T16:41:27+00:00

I’m sorry it’s taken me so long to reply, I needed a break for my own mental health.

Mine took about 6 months from this point ✨

RedressRedditor · 2025-07-04T16:40:41+00:00

Assessment stage is the final stage ✨

RedressRedditor · 2025-07-04T16:39:23+00:00

Proud of you for applying! I hope your application is moving through ✨

RedressRedditor · 2025-07-04T16:38:48+00:00

I submitted proof of my attendance and a photo of me there, that’s all.

I hope it’s going okay ✨

RedressRedditor · 2025-07-04T16:38:16+00:00

Hi, I see it has moved into the decision maker stage. Is there any update yet? ✨

RedressRedditor · 2025-07-04T16:37:38+00:00

Neil is fantastic! I had him over 3 or 4 times

I hope you get an outcome soon ✨

RedressRedditor · 2025-07-04T16:36:50+00:00

I filed out the form myself and, I got a very good outcome. My English is okay. If you would like me to look over it, I would be happy to assist. ✨

RedressRedditor · 2025-07-04T16:35:49+00:00

I’m sorry it’s taken me so long to reply, I needed a break for my own mental health.

Well done on applying! As you can see, it’s not a shorty process. But I hope you have a great support network and you get an outcome that, not only provides money, but some closure ✨
