The Consumer Law has been introduced for the fair trading and provides protection for the
consumer. It has enforcement of the laws in the Australian Government and the States and
Territories where they monitor the Legislative and Governance Forum according to the
implication of Australian Law. The sale or grant of interest in land also controls the Australian
Consumer Law through all over the States. The supply or delivery of the financial products or
services also covers under the Australian Consumer Law (Consumerlaw.gov.au, 2017).
The Australian Consumer Law has important impacts in the developers selling land
because it controls the selling and purchasing the land. On the transaction of real estate the
Australian Consumer Law has uses their own law of applications which helps to identify the
issues in the trade or commerce. The misleading or the deceptive conducts is one of the pat in the
Australian Consumer law which applied for the trade or commerce. The application of law of the
deceptive conducts also works on the unfair contract terms where the consumer contract has
recognized as void in the practice of the trade or commerce purposes.
The ACL also provide protection and safety for the consumer goods and product-related
services. Therefore the enforcement of information standards is another part which also formed
by the ACL. It is actually regulates the consumers for the sale or grant or any interest regarding
the acquisition of personal, domestic or household use or consumption.

It also regulates consumer guarantees for the sale and goods which includes:
 The right to sell and deliver the goods of the supplier.

appearance and finis.

However for the building industry there are varieties of regulation in ACL for associated with
the every issue in the building purposes. Under the Australian Consumer law the consumer
contract has been made where the contract provides the information regarding the selling and
buying of the land for the personal, domestic or household.
The Australian Consumer Law set the standards of the contract where a contract has been
developed between the developer and an individual for selling any land or goods where a
particular standards has been set unless the develop has the right to go to the court (Corones
Christensen and Howell 2016). Normally any sale contract always introduced according to the
standards of contract. According to the standards of contract of Australian Consumer Law when
the developer set the agreements or contract the selling agent records every negotiations
regarding the selling and purchasing of the land. However the ACL helps to ensure that the
consumer can negotiate with the terms when they are selling or purchasing the lands. According
to the standards of the contract in ACL defines the both misrepresentation and unfair contract
terms (Consumerlaw.gov.au, 2017).
