Release Notes

Enhanced Listing Price Display for NSW Residential Properties

In preparation for changes to New South Wales property advertising legislation taking effect on 17 November 2026, Auctions Live is introducing enhancements to Listing Price management to support the public display of property selling prices and price guides.

The new requirements mean that real estate agents must include a selling price or price range in new residential property advertisements. These enhancements provide subscribers with the tools to record, manage and publish this information across supported Auctions Live public-facing pages.

Important: This functionality must be enabled by each affected office through its account settings. It is not automatically activated, and subscribers remain responsible for ensuring their listing price information is accurate, regularly reviewed and kept up to date.

Where Listing Prices Will Be Displayed

Once the required account and listing settings have been configured, the published price guide will be available to prospective buyers across the following supported Auctions Live interfaces:

• ●Electronic Bidder Registration Form: Display the property's price guide to prospective bidders accessing the registration page.
• ●Bid Buy App: Make published price guide information available to buyers viewing the relevant property.
• ●Property Widget Page: Display the price guide on the public-facing property widget used to promote auction listings.

These improvements help ensure prospective buyers can access the price guide information recorded against the property within Auctions Live.

How to Enable Price Guide Publication

Offices affected by the NSW legislative requirements must activate the master setting within their Auctions Live account before listing price information can be publicly displayed through this feature.

Follow these steps to enable the feature:

• ●Step 1 - Log In: Log in to the Auctions Live PC Console.
• ●Step 2 - Open Settings: Select the Gear icon in the top-right corner of the screen.
• ●Step 3 - Access Advanced Settings: Within System Settings, select the Advanced tab.
• ●Step 4 - Enable Publication: Scroll to System Defaults, locate Publish Price Guide and enable this setting.
• ●Step 5 - Save Your Changes: Select the green Update button to save your changes.

How to Enter and Publish a Listing Price Guide

Once the account setting has been enabled, your office should review and update the price guides for all applicable NSW residential property listings.

• ●Step 1 - Locate Your Property: From the left-hand menu in the Auctions Live PC Console, select Auctions > All Upcoming. Locate the relevant property under either the Assigned or Unassigned tab.
• ●Step 2 - Open the Property: Select the blue View icon alongside the relevant property listing.
• ●Step 3 - Access Price Guide Settings: Locate the row labelled Price Guide and select the green Update Price Guide button. A pop-up window will appear.
• ●Step 4 - Review and Update Pricing: Confirm, enter or update the property's Listing Price From and Listing Price To values to ensure the information is accurate and current.
• ●Step 5 - Enable Public Disclosure: Ensure Disclose Price Guide is set to Yes, then select the green Update button to save your changes.

For listings created manually, both the Listing Price From and Listing Price To fields become mandatory when the applicable account-level price guide settings are enabled.

The development also includes API integration support for listing price information. Subscribers using integrated CRM systems should ensure the values recorded within Auctions Live remain accurate and consistent with their current advertised price guide.

Improved Price Guide Visibility for Agents and Administrators

To make it easier for selling agents and administration teams to identify the price information being published, we have also introduced additional price guide visibility throughout the Auctions Live platform.

• ●PC Console: Additional price guide information is displayed in relevant locations to assist office staff when reviewing and managing listings.
• ●Mobile Console App: Price guide information is also made available in relevant areas of the mobile application, providing greater visibility for selling agents.
• ●Greater Awareness: These improvements help agents and administrators identify the price information associated with their listings and recognise when updates may be required.

These additions are intended to support greater transparency within the office and make ongoing price guide management more accessible.

Ongoing Responsibility for Price Guide Accuracy

While Auctions Live provides the functionality to record and publish listing price guides, responsibility for the accuracy, currency and appropriate disclosure of this information remains with the listing agent and subscribing office.

Subscribers should ensure the following requirements are incorporated into their listing management processes:

• ●Account Configuration: The office must enable the required master setting for price guide publication.
• ●Accurate Listing Information: The listing agent must ensure the correct price or price range is recorded against each applicable property.
• ●Disclosure Settings: The Disclose Price Guide setting must be configured correctly for the price information to be publicly available.
• ●Ongoing Updates: Listing agents must review and update price information whenever the advertised price guide changes or is no longer accurate.
• ●Advertising Consistency: Offices must ensure the price information displayed through Auctions Live remains consistent with their other advertising channels and applicable legislative requirements.

Under the NSW changes commencing on 17 November 2026, agents must take reasonable steps to update or remove non-compliant online property advertisements within one business day. Subscribers should therefore maintain appropriate internal procedures to ensure price changes are reflected promptly across their advertising.

For further information regarding the legislative requirements, please refer to NSW Fair Trading - Changes to Property and Stock Agents Laws.

Account Access and Assistance

We encourage all affected NSW subscribers to review their account configuration and existing listings in preparation for the legislative changes taking effect on 17 November 2026.

If your office wishes to enable this feature but you are unsure of your Office Administrator login credentials, please contact support@resoftware.com.au to arrange for an RE Software representative to contact you.

Alternatively, if you need to reset your existing account password, please use the Auctions Live Password Reset page.

We recommend completing the account setup and reviewing the relevant listing prices before the new requirements commence.
