Who this is for

Conveyancers

Licensed conveyancers handling property transfers.

Settlement-focused firms

Firms managing property settlement processes.

Property transfer specialists

Professionals specialising in property transactions.

Why conveyancing is in scope

Property transfers are considered high-risk for money laundering under international standards.

Conveyancers handling designated services will need to comply with AML/CTF obligations.

New requirements cover customer verification, risk assessment, monitoring, and record keeping.

You cannot rely solely on other parties (e.g. real estate agents) having done their own checks.

Why conveyancing is in scope

High-risk buyer profile

A buyer presents with complex funding arrangements and overseas connections. AML Guardian helps you document enhanced due diligence, flag risk factors, and record your assessment decisions.

Complex trust structure

A property is being purchased through a family trust with multiple layers. AML Guardian guides you through KYB verification, beneficial owner identification, and screening.

Overseas funds

Settlement funds originate from an overseas account. AML Guardian helps you apply appropriate risk-based checks and maintain evidence of your due diligence process.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I rely on the real estate agent's checks?

No — each reporting entity has its own independent obligations. You must conduct your own customer verification and risk assessment, even if another party has done theirs.

You still need to independently verify customers and maintain your own records. You may be able to rely on certain checks in some circumstances, but this must be documented and justified.

Records must generally be retained for at least 7 years after the end of the business relationship or completion of the transaction.

An SMR is a report filed with AUSTRAC when you form a suspicion that a transaction may be related to money laundering, terrorism financing, or other criminal activity.

Screening checks your customers against PEP (Politically Exposed Persons), sanctions, and adverse media databases to identify higher-risk individuals or entities.
