The Australian Capital Territory gap ClimateNest closes
ACT has Australia's only mandatory Energy Efficiency Rating (EER) disclosure. Required documents package must be provided before exchange. ClimateNest cross-references EER data with bushfire and flood overlay mapping via ACTmapi.
Duty of care is now explicit
The NSW Law Society's October 2025 Climate Change Practitioner Guidance made the profession's evolving duty explicit, and the expectation is spreading nationally. Buyers, lenders and insurers now expect climate due diligence on every file — and professional indemnity insurers are asking what you did to document it.
ClimateNest gives you a documented, reproducible evidence trail for every settlement in Australian Capital Territory: which overlays were checked, what the forward-looking data says, and what contract clauses you recommended. That's your defensive practice file.
Climate due diligence in every state
All Australian states and territories supported. Legislation data is hardcoded and never AI-generated.
