New Rule Alert: The PEP Check. 🛑
From 1 July 2026, opening a property purchase or sale file means running every client through a PEP (Politically Exposed Person) database.
Whether you’re a local councillor, a high court judge, or simply a regular homebuyer, federal law now requires us to formally check and document public status as part of our standard Customer Due Diligence.
It’s a brand-new step for the conveyancing industry, but our automated systems mean it happens securely in the background in just a few seconds. ⚡
