🏡 Important Update for Property Buyers & Sellers
💰Australia’s Anti-Money Laundering (AML) laws are expanding from 1 July 2026, with real estate professionals now included in the regime.
What does this mean for you?
✅ Identity verification will become a standard part of property transactions
✅ Additional information may be requested when buying, selling, or transferring property
✅ Real estate agencies will have new obligations to help prevent financial crime and protect the integrity of the property market
These changes are designed to combat money laundering, terrorism financing, and other illicit activities, while providing greater transparency and confidence in property transactions.
If you're planning to buy or sell property, you may notice some new compliance steps throughout the process. We can guide you through any requirements to ensure a smooth transaction.
