From 1 August 2025, Queensland is introducing Australia’s most comprehensive property disclosure laws, changing the way every residential property contract is handled across the state.
Whether you’re a buyer or a seller, you’ll be affected.
Sellers must now provide a mandatory disclosure statement (Form 2) and a range of prescribed certificates before a buyer signs the contract. This includes details like easements, zoning, building approvals, and more.
🔹 Miss a document? The buyer could walk away.
🔹 Incorrect details? The contract could fall through or be delayed.
🔹 Think you’re covered? Not everything is included—buyers still need to conduct their own due diligence.
These changes apply to all Queensland residential property sales, and every buyer and seller will need to understand their legal obligations from the outset.
