How does AML/CFT affect me?
New Legislation in the Real Estate Industry
The Anti-Money Laundering and Countering Financing of Terrorism Act 2009 – or “AML”, as it is more commonly known, is part of a worldwide initiative to crack down on illegal activities, including money laundering and terrorism.
New Zealand is held in high regard internationally as one of the least corrupt countries and as a great place to do business. The new rules have been introduced to safeguard that reputation and to play our part in combating global crime.
Criminals have been known to use banks, lawyers, accountants and real estate agents to help hold and move assets. The new legislation is aimed at detecting and ultimately deterring this activity.
How am I affected by the new legislation?
From the 1st of January 2019, all Real Estate companies under the Act must request specific information from our clients before we may advertise the property or business to sell. This information will also be required from clients who have commercial property they wish to lease.
If your property or business is held in the name of a company, trust, or has overseas ownership, we will need specific information about the entity including the people associated with it - such as directors, shareholders, trustees and beneficiaries. The Act also requires us to ask you to confirm source of funds for these entities.
Under the new rules, we will require documents such as a birth certificate, passport or driver’s licence, to prove your identity. We may also request a copy of your rates bill, electricity account or bank statement to confirm your usual residential address.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact your salesperson or their Manager.

Big Goals Small Steps to latest article
I’ve always loved the beginning of the new year. There’s something deeply cleansing about the prospect of a fresh start and a feeling of achievement for previous success and the momentum that brings. There’s also a sense of personal forgiveness for all that may not have been attained – despite the best of intentions.
The word ‘intention’ creates a perfect reminder. It means an aim or a plan, something to be accomplished or acquired, and I work with a set of daily intentional habits which I read every morning and review weekly. For as long as I can remember I’ve dedicated time to working on what I wanted my life to consist of and having a plan for how to achieve this has become a significant part of every new year. Some people think of this as setting New Year’s resolutions, but a quick Google search is all that is needed to prove that many resolutions don’t make it past the first month, let alone lasting the year.
If you are serious about moving forward in any given year and want to make progress, whether it’s in your occupation, health, family,
friendships or personal wellbeing, I’d encourage you to do something about it now! Setting goals and then creating new habits is hard, as is reflecting on where you are and where you might want to be. For years I’ve spent time with family, friends, strangers and colleagues discussing and demonstrating how despite the internal discomfort (and external, if you are including exercise) the process of having goals helps. It’s been interesting to see people’s early, rather reluctant, involvement turn to something much more accepting as they flourished, seeing the benefits of discussing and then documenting their goals as they work towards their accomplishment. If this sounds like something you’d like to start, or maybe just quietly consider, in 2025 I’m happy to give the following advice:
1. Just start. Start today. Stop procrastinating and telling yourself any of those well-worn excuses that we can all conjure up. “Success is the product of daily habits – not once-ina-lifetime transformations” (James Clear, Atomic Habits). And delaying means stopping yourself from being the very person you have always dreamed of being.
2. Write it down, don’t just keep things in your head. Documentation keeps you accountable, whilst providing a visual reference point and context. I have journals both personal and family that include big goals, family dreams and business aspirations in order from the last 25 years and if the house caught on fire, I’d save these along with the family pictures. They are a treasure trove of small wins, large victories and things that have given our family timeless memories.
3. You don’t have to go big – start small. There’s a beautiful concept called the micro-step, which says it’s the small, incremental moves, often layered on top of each other, rather than massive leaps that take us closer to our goal.
So, with this in mind, let me wish you a happy New Year. May it bring you a sense of purpose, lots to smile about and some time to yourself.
