Property Law Bill 2023

This bill replaces Queensland's nearly 50-year-old Property Law Act 1974 with a modernised framework covering how property is bought, sold, leased, and mortgaged. It introduces a new statutory seller disclosure scheme requiring sellers to provide standardised information to buyers before contracts are signed, updates the law to support electronic conveyancing and digital transactions, and removes outdated provisions that no longer reflect modern property practice.
