Sustainability Declaration
The Queensland State Government has made it compulsory to provide a Sustainability Declaration checklist that must be completed by the seller (vendor) when selling a house, townhouse or unit. It will be required as part of the sale from 1 January 2010.
Properties that have a greater number of sustainability features can have lower operating costs and be more energy and water efficient. They use less energy for heating and cooling, generate fewer greenhouse gas emissions, use less water�€”and best of all, are more comfortable to live in.
Sustainability features such as access and safety also mean
that the property will be suitable for owners during their
various life stages and will reduce the need for costly
future upgrades.
The checklist will identify the property's environmental
and social sustainability features in four key areas:
energy water safety access
