How do I navigate the disclosure process if my property has recently undergone renovations or repairs?

1. Gather Documentation: Gather all relevant documentation relating to the renovations or repairs. This may include permits, invoices, contracts with contractors and any warranties for the work carried out.

2. Full Disclosure: Give full and accurate information about the nature and extent of the renovations or repairs. Be honest about the reasons for the work, the contractors involved and the extent of the changes.

3. Include in The Contract: Ensure that full details of the renovations or repairs are included in the purchase contract. This should include what has been done, when it was completed and whether any warranties or guarantees will be transferred to the new owner.

4. Inspect the Property: Carry out a thorough inspection of the property to identify any problems that may have been caused by the renovations or repairs. Address these issues or disclose them to potential buyers.

5. Disclosure Statement: A disclosure statement is now required by law. This new law mandates that sellers provide buyers with a disclosure statement and any relevant prescribed certificates, including a body corporate certificate. This ensures that buyers have all the necessary information before making a purchase decision.

6. Highlight Improvements: Highlight the benefits of the renovations or repairs, such as improved functionality, energy efficiency or aesthetic enhancements. Emphasise how these improvements add value to the property.
