19. VOI Isn’t Enough: The New AML Rules Every Conveyancer Must Know
Episode description
Money laundering might sound like something from a Hollywood film, but it's about to become very real for all of us in the property industry.
In this episode, I break down the upcoming AUSTRAC anti-money laundering reforms in simple, practical terms – no panic, no jargon, and definitely no George Clooney impressions (well, maybe just one).
We’ll talk about:
- What money laundering really looks like in real estate
- The new AML/CTF obligations coming for conveyancers
- What VOI covers (and what it doesn’t)
- Risk assessments and ongoing monitoring in real-life terms
- How to prepare now so you’re not scrambling later
This is a must-listen for any conveyancer wanting to stay ahead of the compliance curve.
Plus, I share practical steps for how to start integrating the new requirements without clogging your workflow.
✨ Stay informed, stay compliant, and most importantly, stay confident.
