How to sign and complete a contract (QLD)
This guide will walk you through the final steps of the sales process: collecting signatures to complete your REIQ contract. This process begins after you have fully prepared the contract in the Sign workspace.

Step 1: Choose Your Signing Method
Once the contract is ready, click the Sign icon in the top right corner. You will be presented with two options for collecting signatures.
Option A: Sign Remotely
This option sends a secure link to all parties to sign the document on their own devices.
- Select Sign Remotely.
- Choose your preferred signing order. Important: In Queensland, the purchaser must sign first. You can set a specific order or send it to all purchasers at the same time. The request will only be sent to the vendor after all purchasers have signed.
- A standard email explaining the process will be sent. When you're ready, click Send Remotely. You will be notified as each party completes the signing.
Option B: Sign In Person
This option is ideal when you are physically with the signatories and can hand them your device to sign on the spot.
- Select Sign In Person.
- The first signatory (e.g., the vendor) will be prompted to agree to sign electronically.
- They then click Start in the top right corner.
- They can choose to either draw their signature with a finger or stylus, or type it. The system will remember their choice for all subsequent signatures.
- After creating their signature, they click Next to be automatically guided through all the fields they need to complete. Once finished, they click Finish.
- Repeat this process for the next signatory (e.g., the purchaser).
Step 2: Finalising the Contract
Once all parties have signed the document, the contract is complete. A final, executed copy will be automatically distributed to everyone involved.
You can then manage the completed document from the Sign workspace, where you can check the audit trail, download a copy for your records, or share a link to the document.
