VerifiedHello
She needs to consent to the sale, so yes it can drag on.
However if she does not consent, you can file an application in court to force the sale, which will no doubt occur and the court will allow it.
I would speak with the bank, see what their position is, then file in court for a swift resolution.
You can file with the supreme court of NSW, they will quickly make the order to sell the home.
