These new laws also require a mandatory Property Price Statement form, including detailed comparable sales information. The changes aim to increase transparency for buyers and streamline the sales process.

Sellers in Melbourne's western growth corridor will need to adapt to these new disclosure requirements, ensuring clear communication with agents. Buyers will benefit from greater transparency, potentially leading to more informed purchasing decisions.
