Material Fact Guidelines
Key changes to the Sale of Land Act 1962.
The Sale of Land Amendment Act 2019 came into effect in March 2020, making it an offence for a vendor, or any person acting on their behalf, to conceal from potential buyers a material fact about the property they are selling.
Consumer Affairs Victoria defines a material fact as that which would be important to a potential purchaser in deciding whether or not to buy a home or land. A material fact can also be something that may influence a purchaser to buy a home or land at a certain price.
Examples of material facts may include, but are not limited to, a property’s past history as a drug lab, having asbestos or a termite infestation
Search Estate Agent Registrar
It’s important to confirm the real estate agent you’re considering buying a property through is licensed. You can do this by checking the Business Licensing Authority (BLA) Register here.
Information on the register includes the date a licence was granted, surrendered, cancelled or suspended, any tribunal or court orders concerning the agent or agent’s representative that affect their licence or status, and the name and registered office details of the licensee.
Our Story
Diana Dugan has been the face of bayside real estate for more than a decade. Passionate and proud, Diana has been running her own business since 2011 where she and her team pride themselves on giving every customer first class service. That means sellers AND buyers.
With experience, Diana has grown more and more aware that many buyers lack the knowledge needed to ensure they’re not falling prey to possible purchase risks. This can stem from not being able to look past the glitz and glamour of property styling to the emotional connection buying property invokes.
After years assisting buyers through their real estate agency, Diana Dugan Property, Diana wanted to help buyers do their research (known in the industry as due diligence), so they really know what property they’re getting before they spend their hard-earned money.
From organising building and pest inspections to checking title boundaries and making sense of covenants on titles, Diana aims to make the difficult things simple when it comes to buying a home.
Diana is a fully licensed real estate agent with the Business Licensing Authority (Licence number: 072657L) Diana has had her licence since March 2011 and is a proud member of the Real Estate Institute of Victoria.
