Seller Disclosure 
Questions Answered

A Seller Disclosure Statement is a legal document that must be provided to a buyer before entering into a contract of sale in Queensland. It outlines key information about the property, including title details, encumbrances, zoning, and other material facts.

From 1 August 2025, the disclosure must comply with new legislative requirements and include a completed Form 2 and prescribed certificates (searches).

Our fixed-price packages include:

• Preparation of the Seller Disclosure Statement (Form 2)
• All mandatory property searches and certificates
• Legal review and compliance check by Baker Jorgensen Lawyers

Turnaround is generally within 2 to 5 business days, depending on whether your property is a house or a unit.

If you are selling a unit, please note that Body Corporate Managers have 5 business days to provide the Form 33 once ordered, which can extend the timeline.

The seller of the property must provide the disclosure statement to the buyer before entering into any contract of sale.

If you don’t provide a valid Seller Disclosure Statement before the buyer signs the contract, or if the information is inaccurate, the buyer may have the right to terminate the contract right up to the settlement date and, in some circumstances, make a claim for compensation.

If the information is misleading, incomplete, or incorrect, the buyer may be able to:

• Withdraw from the contract
• Claim compensation
• Lodge a complaint through legal or consumer channels

It’s important to keep the disclosure up to date if anything changes.

It remains valid as long as the information is accurate at the time of signing the contract.

If any information changes — for example, new council notices, a new mortgage on title, or a show cause notice issued by Council — it should be updated to ensure it is accurate at the time the contract is entered into.
