Licence holders must notify the Registrar in writing within 14 days of becoming aware of certain changes or events.

You must notify the Registrar if there is a change to:

  • your name
  • your contact details
  • an associated entity that becomes or ceases to be associated with your organisation
  • a key person who becomes or ceases to be involved with your organisation
  • any information previously provided in a licence application or licence renewal application.

You must also notify the Registrar if you or an associated entity:

  • enter into an off-the-plan contract for the sale of a regulated residential building
  • apply for a development approval relating to residential building work
  • apply for a building approval relating to residential building work.

The Registrar may request a new rating report if a licensee notifies of a change in circumstance.

Timeframes for notification are legislated in the Property Developer Act 2024 and are also listed below; these must be adhered to:

  • within 14 days: notify the Registrar of a change in circumstances
  • within 28 days: respond to a proposed licence variation initiated by the Registrar after receiving notice.

Failing to notify the Registrar of a change in circumstances is a strict liability offence, which means a person may be held responsible regardless of whether the failure to notify was intentional.
