Seller disclosure rules in QLD, NSW and VIC

Queensland — Form 2 seller disclosure

Since 1 August 2025, sellers of Queensland property must give buyers a disclosure statement (Form 2) and prescribed certificates before the contract is signed, under the Property Law Act 2023. If it's missing or materially inaccurate, the buyer may be able to terminate before settlement.

New South Wales — prescribed contract documents

Sellers must attach prescribed documents to the contract before it's offered for sale, such as a title search, the registered plan, a zoning (planning) certificate and drainage diagrams. Missing documents can give the buyer a right to rescind.

Victoria — Section 32 vendor statement

Sellers must provide a Section 32 statement under the Sale of Land Act 1962 before the buyer signs.
