Queensland Seller Disclosure

Form 2 disclosure, handled.

From 1 August 2025, every Queensland seller must provide a complete Form 2 before the contract is signed. A Queensland-admitted solicitor prepares and signs yours. Government search costs are paid upfront; our service fee is charged at settlement — we succeed when you do.

The requirement

What changed on 1 August 2025.

Under the Property Law Act 2023 (QLD), seller disclosure is now mandatory. Before the buyer signs the contract, the seller must provide a Form 2 containing the title, plan, body corporate (if applicable), zoning, contamination, heritage, pool, transport and rates information that affects the property.

If the disclosure is incomplete or inaccurate, the buyer may terminate the contract at any time before settlement. The seller may also be liable for the buyer's losses. The obligation rests with the seller — not the agent, not the conveyancer.

The service

What we do.

  1. i.
    Order the searches
    Title, registered plan, contaminated land and EVR, heritage register, pool safety, zoning and planning, council rates and outstanding orders, transport and noise corridor, land tax and energy infrastructure — sourced direct from the relevant government registries.
  2. ii.
    Prepare the Form 2
    Each disclosure section is populated from the searches and the seller's questionnaire. Risks and adverse matters are surfaced for the lawyer's attention before review.
  3. iii.
    Solicitor review and sign-off
    A Queensland-admitted solicitor reviews every Form 2, checks the disclosures against the searches, and signs the form. No form is delivered without a solicitor's review.
  4. iv.
    Delivered to your conveyancer
    The signed Form 2 is delivered to you and your conveyancer ahead of contract signing. Our fee is invoiced through settlement, alongside the conveyancer's disbursements.

Questions

Common questions.

Who is responsible for the Form 2?+
The seller. Under the Property Law Act 2023, the obligation to provide a complete and accurate Form 2 to the buyer before contract sits with the seller personally — not the agent, and not the conveyancer.
Why is the service fee paid at settlement?+
Our service fee — preparation and the solicitor's review and sign-off — is invoiced through your conveyancer and paid as a settlement disbursement. Government search costs are paid upfront because we incur them upfront ordering on your behalf.
What if the contract falls through?+
The searches we ordered are yours to keep. The service fee is invoiced in line with the work performed up to that point. Our engagement letter sets out the position in full and is provided before work begins.
Can my conveyancer still handle the rest of the sale?+
Yes — they should. Our service is the Form 2 disclosure only. The signed Form 2 is delivered to your conveyancer, who provides it to the buyer and continues with the conveyance as usual.
Do you act for the seller or the buyer?+
The seller. We prepare and sign the Form 2 that the seller is obliged to give the buyer. We do not advise on the contract of sale itself — that is your conveyancer's role.
