Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about Queensland property contract review
Does ContractLens review REIQ contracts?
Yes. The REIQ (Real Estate Institute of Queensland) standard contract is used for most residential sales in Queensland. ContractLens reviews both the standard terms and any special conditions the seller has added.
What body corporate issues should I check in Queensland?
Key body corporate risks in QLD include high administrative and sinking fund levies, pending special levies for major works, inadequate insurance coverage, and disputes between lot owners. Our AI flags these from the body corporate disclosure documents.
What is the cooling-off period for Queensland property purchases?
Queensland provides a 5-business-day cooling-off period for residential property purchases made by private treaty. Auction purchases have no cooling-off period. The penalty for terminating within the cooling-off period is 0.25% of the purchase price.
Do I need a pool safety certificate to buy property in QLD?
If the property has a swimming pool, the seller must provide a pool safety certificate (or a notice of no certificate) before settlement. Without it, the buyer may need to obtain one after purchase at their own expense.
