Property Compliance Guard Stop risking $48k fines under Victoria’s October 2026 property laws.
A WordPress plugin — 100% integrable with your current agency website. Install it on the site you already run; it tracks 7-day auction deadlines, generates compliant Property Price Statements (PPS), and locks in 18-month public hosting — without replacing your CRM or rebuilding your stack.
WordPress plugin · 100% integrable with your existing website · Ready for 1 October 2026 PPS rules.
1 October 2026 is not a soft launch — it is enforcement.
Victoria’s Consumer Legislation Amendment Bill 2026 replaces the Statement of Information with the Property Price Statement (PPS). Auctions and fixed-date sales follow the new reserve rules from 16 October. Consumer Affairs Victoria’s own example: an auction on 16 October needed the reserve public by 9 October. Missed timelines risk fines up to $48,000 — and commission exposure no marketing budget can absorb.
Most PPS / sold-price rules start
Sold-price updates apply to sales that become unconditional on or after this date, even if the contract was signed earlier.
—
First reserve deadline for 16 Oct auctions
If the reserve is not published at least 7 days before an auction or fixed-date sale, that sale cannot go ahead. A later reserve change can restart the clock.
—
Auctions & fixed-date sales under the new rules
Treat mid-October as hard. Rehearse the workflow on live WordPress pages before then.
—
PPS stays public and free
On an internet site, unless CAV grants an exemption (for example family-violence circumstances approved by the Director).
Do not take the page down early
Penalties for related pricing and transparency breaches can reach 240 penalty units (about A$50,184 in 2026–27), and some underquoting conduct can also put commission at risk. A missed webpage is not automatically every one of those offences. Property Compliance Guard is a workflow tool. It does not make the office “legally compliant” by itself.

WordPress plugin FAQs for VIC Property Price Statement (PPS).
Clear answers on VIC PPS rules from 1 October 2026, $48,000 fine risk, 7-day auction deadlines, 18-month hosting — and how the Property Compliance Guard WordPress plugin fits Victorian agency websites.
Property Compliance Guard is a WordPress plugin for Victorian Property Price Statement (VIC PPS) compliance. It installs on your agency’s existing WordPress real estate website and helps Victorian offices track 7-day auction and vendor-reserve deadlines, generate compliant Property Price Statements, publish them publicly, and keep required PPS pages hosted for 18 months ahead of 1 October 2026.
Yes. Property Compliance Guard is a WordPress plugin built specifically for VIC PPS (Property Price Statement) compliance on Victorian real estate websites. It is 100% integrable with the WordPress site you already run — no platform rebuild — and adds PPS generation, deadline radar, staff alerts, public publishing, and an 18-month hosting lock for Melbourne and regional Victorian agencies.
A Property Price Statement (PPS) is Victoria’s updated public pricing document for residential sales. From 1 October 2026 it replaces the older Statement of Information under Victoria’s consumer and estate-agent reforms. A compliant VIC PPS typically sets out the vendor’s indicative pricing position, comparable sales, and key property metrics so buyers can find clear, structured price information on the agency’s WordPress website. Property Compliance Guard is a WordPress plugin that helps agencies create and host those PPS documents.
Victoria’s Property Price Statement (VIC PPS) obligations are scheduled to apply from 1 October 2026. Victorian real estate agencies should treat that date as enforcement-ready — not a soft launch — and have WordPress listing workflows, auction countdowns, and public PPS hosting locked in before then. Installing the Property Compliance Guard WordPress plugin early lets offices rehearse the full PPS workflow before enforcement.
Under Victoria’s reformed property advertising rules, agencies risk significant penalties — commonly cited at up to $48,000 — for missed auction or reserve timelines, incomplete Property Price Statements (PPS), or failing to keep required sale-price and PPS records publicly available for the mandated period. Exact liability depends on the conduct and the regulator’s findings; principals should confirm obligations with their compliance adviser. A WordPress plugin for VIC PPS compliance helps reduce process risk by tracking deadlines and locking public hosting.
The Statement of Information (SOI) was Victoria’s previous pricing disclosure document. The Property Price Statement (PPS) is the replacement VIC framework from 1 October 2026, with tighter expectations around structured comparable data, vendor-reserve timing around auctions, and longer public hosting. Property Compliance Guard is a WordPress plugin built for the VIC PPS workflow on agency sites — not as a legacy SOI-only tool.
Victorian PPS rules require agencies to lock and publish the vendor’s reserve (or equivalent pricing position) within a strict window before auction — commonly framed as a 7-day countdown. Missing that clock creates compliance risk. The Property Compliance Guard WordPress plugin runs deadline radar and team alerts so staff can enter the verified reserve and publish the Property Price Statement on time.
Sale prices and Property Price Statements must remain publicly hosted for 18 months under Victoria’s PPS framework. Taking pages down early is not a safe workaround. Property Compliance Guard — a WordPress plugin for VIC PPS compliance — includes an 18-month public hosting lock so PPS documents stay findable on your WordPress site for the full mandated window.
Yes. It is a WordPress plugin built specifically for Victorian (VIC) Property Price Statement (PPS) compliance on WordPress real estate websites — including Melbourne and regional Victorian agencies preparing for 1 October 2026. It is not a national CRM and is not designed for NSW, QLD, or other jurisdictions’ disclosure regimes.
Yes. Property Compliance Guard is a WordPress plugin for VIC PPS compliance that is 100% integrable with your current agency website and listing stack. Install it on the WordPress site you already run — it adds a Property Price Statement builder wizard, background compliance radar, auction and reserve alerts, public PPS publishing, and 18-month hosting lock. It does not replace your CRM or force a website rebuild.
No. For legal safety, agents enter the verified reserve. The Property Compliance Guard WordPress plugin then manages the strict VIC PPS countdowns, team alerts, public Property Price Statement publishing, and the 18-month hosting lock — so the liability of verifying the number stays with your office, not with an unverified scrape.
No. Property Compliance Guard is a WordPress plugin for VIC Property Price Statement compliance — a final website guardrail and public publishing engine, not a CRM replacement. Keep your CRM for deals, contacts, and pipeline; use the plugin for PPS generation, deadline radar, staff alerts, and 18-month public hosting on your WordPress site.
Free covers up to 3 live listings with the full Property Compliance Guard PPS workflow — builder, deadlines, reminders, and 18-month hosting. Boutique Agency is A$250 AUD per year (GST may apply) and tracks up to 100 listings with compliance checks, Property Price Statement generation, and 18-month hosting lock. Growth Agency is A$550 AUD per year (GST may apply) for unlimited active listings, multi-agent alert routing, priority updates, and everything in Boutique. Each plan includes a one-time A$450 AUD setup fee (GST may apply). Prices are quoted in Australian dollars.
Existing Property Price Statement (PPS) files and hosted sale-price records generated by the WordPress plugin remain live for the mandated 18 months so your VIC PPS compliance posture is protected. You simply upgrade to Growth when you need to track additional new listings.
Principals and operations managers own the VIC Property Price Statement compliance outcome; WordPress developers or website partners usually install and configure the Property Compliance Guard WordPress plugin on the agency site. Once live, listing staff use the PPS wizard and respond to deadline alerts. Agencies can license Boutique or Growth and engage a WordPress specialist for install if needed.
Yes — and that is the point. Installing the Property Compliance Guard WordPress plugin for VIC PPS ahead of 1 October 2026 lets Melbourne and wider Victorian offices rehearse Property Price Statement generation, auction countdowns, and public hosting while the rules are still approaching, instead of scrambling after enforcement begins.
No. This is not legal advice. Property Compliance Guard is a productised WordPress plugin that automates VIC Property Price Statement (PPS) workflows — deadline radar, alerts, document generation, and 18-month public hosting ahead of 1 October 2026. It does not replace legal, conveyancing, or Consumer Affairs Victoria guidance. Always confirm current VIC PPS obligations with your licensed compliance adviser before changing advertising or auction processes.
Disclaimer: answers on this page are general product information only — not legal advice. Confirm VIC PPS obligations with your licensed compliance adviser. Pricing is in AUD (GST may apply). Enforcement date referenced: 1 October 2026.
Protect your agency before the October 1st enforcement hits.
