On-selling an off-the-plan dwelling

If you have bought a dwelling off-the-plan from a licenced property developer, you do not need a property developer licence if you on-sell that dwelling prior to a certificate of occupancy being issued for the project.

The Civil Law (Sale of Residential Property) Amendment Regulation 2025 (No 1) excludes people who are on-selling an off-the-plan dwelling from the requirement to hold a property developer licence. However, you are required to include the property developer licence number on any subsequent advertisement or contract for sale.
