Consumer Information

NSW consumers buying or selling residential property are now better protected against unfair and unethical industry practices by new laws that commenced on 1 September 2003.

The changes represent a substantial overhaul of the property industry, consumers will benefit from new ethical standards set for industry, transparent auction procedures and the introduction of requirements to ensure they are fully informed about the terms and conditions of the agency agreement before it is signed.
