Last updated: 7 September 2026
These Terms of Use apply to your access to and use of the Wood Associates website, including its content, business and property listings, forms, tools and other online services (the Website).
The Website is operated by WOODBIZ PTY LTD ABN 51 608 156 921, trading as Wood Associates (Wood Associates, we, us or our).
By accessing or using the Website, you agree to these Terms of Use. If you do not agree, you must not use the Website.
1. Website information only
The content on the Website is provided for general information only. It does not take into account your objectives, financial position, circumstances or needs and is not intended to be legal, accounting, taxation, financial, investment, credit or other professional advice.
You should obtain independent professional advice appropriate to your circumstances before acting, or deciding not to act, on information available through the Website.
Nothing on the Website constitutes an offer, recommendation or commitment by Wood Associates to provide services, arrange finance, sell a business or property, or enter into any transaction. Any services we agree to provide will be subject to a separate written engagement, authority, appointment or other agreement.
2. Business and property listings
Business, franchise, commercial property, residential property and other opportunity listings may include information supplied by vendors, owners, landlords, agents or other third parties. Although we may review information before publication, we do not guarantee that listing information is complete, current or accurate.
Unless expressly stated otherwise:
- financial figures, forecasts, projections, asking prices, property details, stock values, equipment lists and other listing information have not been independently audited or verified by us;
- images may be illustrative, digitally enhanced or taken at an earlier date;
- availability, price and other terms may change or be withdrawn without notice; and
- publication of a listing does not constitute a representation that a business, property or opportunity is suitable for any person.
Prospective buyers, investors, tenants and other interested parties must make their own enquiries, conduct their own due diligence and obtain independent legal, financial, taxation, accounting, valuation, building, planning and other appropriate advice before entering into a transaction.
3. Appraisals, valuations and calculators
Any estimate, appraisal, indicative value, benchmark, score, calculation or automated output made available through the Website is indicative only unless we expressly state that it forms part of a formal written valuation or professional engagement.
Results may be based on information supplied by you or a third party, general assumptions, market data and automated processes. They should not be relied upon as a formal valuation, finance approval, investment recommendation or prediction of the price or outcome that may be achieved.
4. Finance information
General information about lending, finance structures, interest rates, repayments, borrowing capacity or eligibility is illustrative only. It is not a credit approval or guarantee that finance will be available.
Any credit assistance, lending recommendation or finance service will be provided separately by the appropriately authorised or licensed entity and will be subject to its own disclosures, assessment process and terms. Lenders apply their own policies and retain sole discretion over finance decisions.
5. Enquiries, registrations and accounts
When you submit an enquiry, register your interest, create an account, download material or use an interactive feature, you must provide information that is accurate, current and complete. You must not impersonate another person or submit information without authority.
Submitting an enquiry does not create an adviser-client, broker-client, agency, fiduciary or other professional relationship. Such a relationship arises only when the relevant parties enter into a separate written agreement.
If the Website allows you to create an account, you are responsible for keeping your login details confidential and for activity conducted through your account. You must notify us promptly if you suspect unauthorised access.
6. Acceptable use
You must not:
- use the Website for any unlawful, fraudulent or misleading purpose;
- interfere with the Website's operation, security or availability;
- introduce malware or other harmful code;
- attempt to gain unauthorised access to the Website, its systems, accounts or data;
- scrape, harvest, crawl, index, reproduce or extract Website content or data by automated means without our prior written permission;
- use listing details or personal information to send unsolicited communications;
- misrepresent your identity, authority or intentions; or
- use the Website or its content in a way that infringes another person's rights.
We may restrict, suspend or terminate access to the Website if we reasonably believe these Terms have been breached or access presents a security, legal or operational risk.
7. Intellectual property
Unless otherwise stated, the Website and its content—including text, branding, logos, graphics, photographs, videos, layouts, reports, downloads, software and underlying material—are owned by or licensed to Wood Associates and are protected by intellectual property laws.
We grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable and revocable licence to access and use the Website for your personal or internal business purposes. You may download or print reasonable extracts for those purposes, provided you do not remove any copyright, trade mark or ownership notice.
You must not otherwise copy, republish, modify, distribute, sell, license, commercially exploit or create derivative works from the Website or its content without our prior written permission.
8. Material you provide
You retain ownership of material you submit through the Website. You grant us a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free licence to store, reproduce, use and disclose that material to the extent reasonably necessary to respond to your request, operate the Website, provide our services and meet our legal obligations.
You warrant that you have the right to provide the material and that our permitted use of it will not infringe another person's rights or breach any obligation of confidentiality.
Personal information is handled in accordance with our Privacy Policy.
9. Third-party websites and services
The Website may contain links to third-party websites, platforms, tools or services. These are provided for convenience only. We do not control or endorse third-party content and are not responsible for its accuracy, availability, security, privacy practices or terms.
Your use of a third-party website or service is at your own risk and subject to that third party's terms.
10. Website availability and security
We aim to keep the Website available and secure but do not guarantee uninterrupted, error-free or virus-free access. We may change, suspend or withdraw any part of the Website without notice, including for maintenance, security, legal or operational reasons.
You are responsible for using appropriate security measures, maintaining backups and protecting your systems and devices.
11. Liability
Nothing in these Terms excludes, restricts or modifies any consumer guarantee, right or remedy that cannot lawfully be excluded, including under the Australian Consumer Law.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, Wood Associates and its directors, officers, employees, contractors and agents are not liable for any loss, damage, cost or expense arising from or connected with:
- your access to, use of or inability to use the Website;
- reliance on Website content, a listing, estimate, appraisal, calculation or third-party information;
- errors, omissions, delays, interruptions, security incidents or harmful code; or
- a decision or transaction made on the basis of Website content.
Where liability cannot lawfully be excluded but may be limited, our liability is limited, at our option and to the extent permitted by law, to resupplying the relevant services or paying the reasonable cost of having those services supplied again.
This clause does not apply to liability arising from our fraud, wilful misconduct or any other liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited.
12. Indemnity
To the extent permitted by law, you indemnify Wood Associates against loss, liability, damage, cost or expense arising from your unlawful use of the Website, your material breach of these Terms, or material you submit that infringes another person's rights.
Your liability under this clause will be reduced to the extent that our act or omission contributed to the relevant loss.
13. Privacy and cookies
Our collection, use, storage and disclosure of personal information are addressed in our Privacy Policy. The Website may also use cookies and similar technologies as described in our Cookie Policy or cookie notice.
14. Changes to these Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time by publishing the revised version on the Website. The updated Terms apply from the date stated at the top of the page. Your continued use of the Website after that date constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.
15. Governing law
These Terms are governed by the laws of Victoria, Australia. You submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Victoria and courts entitled to hear appeals from them.
16. General
If any provision of these Terms is invalid or unenforceable, it will be read down to the extent necessary or severed, and the remaining provisions will continue to apply.
A failure or delay by us to exercise a right does not waive that right.
