Real estate AML/CTF · Built into FLK

Bank-grade compliance, built into your FLK workflow.

From 1 July 2026, real estate agencies must verify buyers and sellers under AUSTRAC's Tranche 2 reforms. LAB Group runs customer due diligence, identity verification, and AML screening directly inside the FLK signing journey. The same standards relied on by Australia's major banks, sized and priced for your agency.

How it works inside FLK

Compliance that runs in the background of the signing flow.

1

Activate LAB through FLK

Request activation in your FLK settings. LAB onboards your agency and switches CDD on for your account.

2

CDD triggers on the agreement

When an agreement is created, FLK triggers the appropriate CDD flow for the seller on sending, and for the buyer once they are confirmed. Existing party details flow straight from FLK, so no one is asked twice.

3

Buyer or seller completes CDD

They provide any further information required, verify their identity, and complete AML screening through the LAB journey on their own device.

4

Outcome returns to FLK

Status sits alongside the agreement and the result returns to FLK via the API. Full case detail lives in the LAB Portal.

When FLK it over set out to find an AML compliance partner, it was important we found someone who shared our standard of quality and depth of knowledge – so we could give our customers the same continuity of service and ease of use they’ve come to love. Agents are carrying a significant weight of regulatory obligations now, and our job is to solve that for them: to bring it all into one seamless flow for agents and their clients, so they can navigate the requirements with ease and get back to what they do best – listing and selling property. LAB Group was the clear fit.
