About the Webinar

In 2022, the NSW Court of Appeal handed down its decision in Hong v Gui reaffirming the law relating to repudiation of a contract for the sale of land.  The case, which involved an allegation of a notice to terminate by the vendor as amounting to repudiation, has raised eyebrows in terms of its repercussions for the future – particularly when it comes to payment of deposits and instalment contracts. This session shall explore this case in more detail and discuss:

  • The facts in Hong v Gui which led the Court to its ultimate finding as to whether the contract had been repudiated
  • What factors the Court will look at when determining in future cases whether a contract has been repudiated - what exactly is meant by ‘totality of the party’s conduct’ and what must now be disclosed
  • The relevance of the conduct of the other party when establishing whether there has been a repudiation by the other
  • What options are available in cases where a party seeks to get out of a signed contract for the sale of land?
