Seller Disclosure Statements
Solicitors we refer prepare the Form 2 Seller Disclosure Statement and prescribed certificates that Queensland sellers must give buyers before contract from 1 August 2025.
How the conveyancing works in Queensland
Queensland's seller disclosure rules changed significantly in 2025. From 1 August 2025, under the Property Law Act 2023, a seller must give the buyer a signed Form 2 Seller Disclosure Statement and the prescribed certificates before the buyer signs the contract of sale. The regime applies to residential and commercial sales, with limited exemptions. Getting this right is now a core part of selling, and Brisbane Conveyancers, a referral service rather than a law firm, connects sellers with Queensland Law Society-member solicitors who prepare the disclosure correctly.
The Form 2 Seller Disclosure Statement is the document a seller must give a buyer before they sign, setting out key facts and certificates about the property. The solicitor we refer you to assembles the statement and the prescribed certificates, which can include title and registered-plan information, rates and water details, and other property-specific certificates. For a unit or townhouse, the disclosure also covers body corporate information, because strata properties carry levies, by-laws and records a buyer needs before they commit.
Why does this matter so much? Disclosure that is missing, late or incorrect can give a buyer the right to terminate the contract, even close to settlement. That makes accurate, complete disclosure both a legal obligation and a way to protect the sale. The solicitor makes sure the statement is prepared before the buyer signs, so the contract is not exposed to a disclosure-based termination right.
This service suits any Queensland seller listing a property from 1 August 2025 onward, whether it is a freestanding house, a unit, a townhouse or a commercial premises. It is most valuable when arranged at the listing stage rather than after a buyer is found, because the disclosure has to be ready before the contract is signed.
On cost, preparing seller disclosure is usually part of the solicitor's broader fixed-fee quote for managing your sale, rather than a separate charge, though it can be quoted on its own. Government charges and the cost of the prescribed certificates are additional and confirmed separately in writing. We are a referral network and never set or charge the fee.
