+# Checking for new property-linked updates
+
+The `display-property-updates` goal will check all the properties in your project and display a list
+of those properties which are used to control versions of dependencies, plugins and plugin dependencies and
+it will detail which properties have newer versions available.
+
+Here are some examples of what this looks like:
+
+```sh
+svn checkout http://svn.codehaus.org/mojo/trunk/mojo/build-helper-maven-plugin build-helper-maven-plugin
+cd build-helper-maven-plugin
+mvn versions:display-property-updates
+```
+
+Which produces the following output:
+
+```log
+[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
+[INFO] Building Build Helper Maven Plugin
+[INFO]    task-segment: [versions:display-property-updates]
+[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
+[INFO] [versions:display-property-updates]
+[INFO]
+[INFO] This project does not have any properties associated with versions.
+[INFO]
+[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
+[INFO] BUILD SUCCESSFUL
+[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
+[INFO] Total time: 6 seconds
+[INFO] Finished at: Wed Aug 12 13:28:04 BST 2009
+[INFO] Final Memory: 11M/22M
+[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
+```
+
+Another example, using a project which uses properties to control the version of multiple artifacts:
+
+```sh
+svn checkout http://svn.codehaus.org/mojo/trunk/mojo/versions-maven-plugin versions-maven-plugin
+cd versions-maven-plugin
+mvn versions:display-property-updates
+```
+
+Which produces the following output:
+
+```log
+[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
+[INFO] Building Versions Maven Plugin
+[INFO]    task-segment: [versions:display-property-updates]
+[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
+[INFO] [versions:display-property-updates]
+[INFO]
+[INFO] The following version property updates are available:
+[INFO]   ${doxiaVersion} ........................................ 1.0 -> 1.1.1
+[INFO]   ${doxia-sitetoolsVersion} .............................. 1.0 -> 1.1.1
+[INFO]

+[INFO] BUILD SUCCESSFUL
