Article Abstract:

Property developers at Queensland's Gold Coast are using aggressive telemarketing and investment seminars to attract property buyers. They are targeting armed forces personnel, miners, Interstate buyers, and others to sell their overpriced and less-valued property. Queensland is drafting a new legislation aimed at regulating the activities of marketers, developers, and agents, which would prevent them from using misleading sales techniques to sell their property.
