Anti Money Laundering Training For Estate and Letting agency
Anti-Money Laundering (AML) compliance is a critical responsibility for estate and letting agencies, especially in today’s regulatory landscape where property transactions are under increasing scrutiny. Eminent Accountants offers comprehensive AML training specifically tailored for estate and letting agencies, ensuring your firm remains fully compliant with the Money Laundering Regulations 2017 (as amended) and guidelines issued by HMRC and the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA).
Our specialised AML training equips your staff — including compliance officers, senior managers, and front-line negotiators — with the necessary knowledge to detect and prevent financial crime. It covers the end-to-end AML framework relevant to property professionals, including customer due diligence (CDD), enhanced due diligence (EDD), reporting obligations (SARs), record-keeping, and internal controls. The training also addresses specific vulnerabilities within property transactions such as third-party purchases, overseas clients, politically exposed persons (PEPs), and high-risk jurisdictions.
Estate agents and letting agents are frequently targeted by criminals attempting to launder illicit funds through property transactions, making AML training not just a legal obligation but a practical necessity. Eminent’s training modules are interactive, regularly updated, and tailored to the day-to-day realities of estate agency operations. Whether you operate as a single-branch letting agency or a multi-office estate firm, our programme is scalable and designed to meet your operational needs.
What sets Eminent apart is our hands-on approach. We don’t just deliver theory — we demonstrate how AML practices apply in real-world property deals, and we help agencies develop their risk assessments and AML policies. We also assist firms in preparing for HMRC audits, internal reviews, and FCA compliance checks.
Training is delivered online or in person, depending on your preferences, and includes assessment modules, certification upon completion, and optional policy drafting support. We also offer ongoing compliance support packages that help estate agencies stay current with regulatory updates.
With Eminent, you're not just ticking a compliance box — you're embedding a culture of diligence and accountability into your agency. Let us help safeguard your business, reputation, and clients by ensuring your team is AML-competent and audit-ready.
