Nearly three months on from 1 July, and the AML/CTF questions haven't slowed down.

AML/CTF Check-In 3 goes state by state: our biggest panel yet, with a specialist from each of New South Wales, Victoria, and Queensland on what firms in their state are running into, and how they're getting on top of it.

The challenges show up file by file: the company or trust that sits outside your standard onboarding path, the client whose circumstances shift mid-matter, the reliance arrangement you want to be certain you've called correctly, and the rising cost of compliance work that arrives before an unconditional contract is even signed.

On the panel:
Storey, Partner, Risk Consulting at Grant Thornton
Tonner, President of the Australian Institute of Conveyancers (NSW Division)
Maclean, President of the Australian Institute of Conveyancers (VIC Division)
Edwards, General Manager, Operations at Colwell Conveyancing Group, Queensland
Pinto, Major Account Manager at triSearch

📅 Tuesday, 15 September 2026 | 10:30am to 12pm AEST

Attendees are eligible to claim 1.5 CPD points on completion.

Register and submit your question ahead of the session, and the panel will work through it live: https://form.jotform.com/262251244324852

Between AML/CTF obligations, reliance agreements, and referral partners, property practices have never juggled more.

We spent the day filming with Nicholas Gould, Managing Director at Colwell Conveyancing Group in Brisbane, for another conversation in our client story series.

Nicholas has seen this from both sides: getting AML/CTF obligations in place through the triSearch Compliance Centre, and structuring reliance agreements with referral partners so the same client checks aren't repeated on every matter.

We'll publish the full video soon.

AUSTRAC has just updated its AML/CTF program starter kits, and conveyancers are one of the sectors affected.

The revised guidance is meant to help newly regulated sectors, including real estate professionals, lawyers, conveyancers, accountants, and jewellers, strengthen risk management and navigate their obligations with more confidence.

Our team is reviewing the updated materials now to understand what's changed and what it means for firms using the triSearch Compliance Centre.

Once we've finished our review, we'll share a clear breakdown of the key changes, what to consider, and any action you might need to take.

There's no substitute for a good face-to-face conversation with the people who keep property moving. Over the weekend we joined the Hunter Valley Education Day in Pokolbin, with Pinto and Akbari representing .

It was a great day talking with conveyancers and property lawyers about where the profession is heading, from the day-to-day efficiency of running a practice to navigating AML/CTF obligations now that they have commenced. Events like these are a genuine chance to learn from the industry and share what we're seeing across the market.

Thank you to everyone who came to say hello, and to AICNSW for putting the day together. If we didn't get a chance to chat, reach out to your triSearch Account Manager or the team any time.

A familiar name. A believable email. A changed payment request. That's often all it takes to redirect a client's settlement funds straight into a scammer's account.

This Scams Awareness Week, the message is simple: Stop. Check. Protect. This year's theme, 'No one's just a number', is a reminder that behind every scam report is a real person whose money, time, or trust has been taken. Keeping property transactions secure takes awareness from everyone involved.

A few habits make the difference:
• Pause before acting on unexpected requests
• Verify instructions through a trusted contact method
• Educate your team on warning signs

At triSearch, security is built into our platform to help firms protect sensitive information and work more securely.

Every AML/CTF check adds a step. Every step is time a client is waiting on settlement.

We asked Lauren Haines, Principal Licensee and Director of The Conveyancing Group NSW, how her firm makes both work.

This morning she walked us through what changed day to day, where the challenges actually showed up, and how the triSearch Compliance Centre fits into that shift. Lauren's conversation is part of a short series with practices feeling the impact of Tranche 2 firsthand.

Her full interview will be out soon on video.

How far should due diligence go on a complex client structure? Firms are still asking, and it came up again in this month's AML/CTF Check-In session.

Richard Storey and Mark Pinto were joined by a fresh perspective this month: property lawyer Nicholas Gould from Colwell Conveyancing Group. Together they worked through the questions firms keep raising, including:
• Onboarding complex client structures
• How far due diligence should go
• Assessing source of funds
• Knowing when a matter needs to be reported

Thank you to our speakers and everyone who joined us.

Save the date for Check-In 3: on 15 September, our largest panel yet, five AML/CTF and property law specialists, works through your Tranche 2 questions live.
