I know in QLD it's common for offers to be presented as pre-signed Contract of Sales, and that all offers must be presented to the seller aswell as disclosing if there are multiple offers.

I've noticed a lot of agents using online 'offer forms' with acknowledgements such as 'not all offers will be presented to the seller', 'may have multiple offers', etc.

My question is what are the legal requirements from the selling agent on these offers? Do they not need to present them to the owner? Do they not need to disclose multiple offers?

Is this a real estate tactic to get around these things, or do they just use them to try and get more people to offer?

There's a nice property that has done a building report but no pest report, and won't accept offers conditional on B&P as they have already done a building report.

How much of a red flag is this? Or am I being too cautious?
