New legislation regarding the sale of homes was passed on November 12th 2009 amending the PAMD (Property Agents and Motor Dealers Act) & the Building Act.
This new legislation requires QLD home sellers (vendors) to complete a Sustainability Declaration to accompany the sale of a property.
From 1 January 2010 the seller must not publish an advertisement (unless it is a newspaper advertisement) regarding the sale of a house/unit unless it includes information about where a copy of a building’s current Sustainability Declaration can be obtained.
