The NSW Government has proposed a number of reforms to the real estate and property services industry. While some of the proposals will improve the industry, the reforms do not do enough to protect the significant number of NSW residents who have dealings with the industry, either as renters or as the buyers or sellers of property.
The Real Estate and Property Services Industry Reform Paper proposes a reform path for the industry, identifying a range of reforms that the Government intends to introduce into Parliament in early 2017.
