AML/CTF legislation is coming.

Are you ready?

From 1 July 2026, Australia’s Anti-Money Laundering and Counter-Terrorism Financing (AML/CTF) laws will extend to the real estate sector. This means that real estate professionals who facilitate buying or selling property or businesses will be required to meet new and extensive compliance obligations. 

 

Under the new laws, agents will be required to complete due diligence on both buyers and sellers, monitor transactions and report risks to regulatory bodies. Real estate agencies will also be required to appoint an AML/CTF Compliance Officer and train staff within their businesses.

 

The commencement of these laws marks a major legislative reform and the introduction of new and largely unprecedented requirements for agents in Australia.  

 

This is not “business as usual” but a complete transformation of how real estate will be conducted in Australia. To prepare you for this landmark change, the REIQ is taking critical training on the road with the REIQ Roadshow, a state-wide event designed to prepare and safeguard you and your team.
