Samantha signs a contract to buy a brand new unit in kogarah. The contract is subject to an extended settlement period of 120 days. Samantha through her solicitor, transfers the 10% deposit to the vendor's solicitor and then speaks with her mortgage broker about obtaining a loan. While all this is going on samantha sells her own unit in oatley. She intends to use the money realised from the sale of the oatley unit to pay the balance of the purchased price of the kogarah unit. A problem arises when samantha's unit dies not sell by the expected date. Samnatha needed to secure short term finance at an almost exorbitant interest rate just so she can buy the kogarah unit. Samantha consults her solicitor who advises her that she can sue the buyer of her oatley unit for breach of contract and ask for damages including the additional interest charges she incurred. Is Samantha's solicitor correct. Explain
