Dispute with a real estate agent
If you have a problem with a property sale or a real estate agent, first try to resolve it with the agent.
If you have lost money because of something an agent has done (or not done), you may be entitled to claim for compensation.
You can also contact the Real Estate Institute of Queensland for advice if the agent is a member.
If you have tried to resolve your complaint without any success, lodge a written complaint with the Office of Fair Trading.
