What the AML Health Check looks at
A practical review of the areas that will matter most as the obligations apply to real estate.
Where your agency stands
A plain-English read on how ready your agency is for anti-money-laundering obligations, and the main gaps to close.
Customer due diligence
How you would identify and verify clients, and the practical steps to build customer checks into how your agency already works.
Record keeping
What records you would need to keep, for how long, and whether your current systems can hold them.
Risk awareness
The situations most likely to carry money-laundering risk in property transactions, and how your team would recognise them.
Team understanding

- Principals getting ahead of the AML/CTF obligations for real estate
- Licensees in charge who carry compliance responsibility
- Practice managers who will run the day-to-day checks
- Agencies that want to prepare early rather than scramble later
A note on scope. The AML Health Check is an educational and advisory review to help your agency understand and prepare for its anti-money-laundering obligations. It is not legal advice and does not replace it. Your agency remains responsible for meeting its own obligations under the AML/CTF regime and any AUSTRAC requirements. Seek your own legal or compliance advice where you need it.
