Our announcement confirming FirstAML as First National’s exclusive Alliance Partner for Tranche 2 AML/CTF compliance has also attracted strong interest. 

 

RECON Daily highlighted the due diligence undertaken, the competitive review process, and the value this partnership brings to members as they prepare their AML/CTF programmes. The article also reinforced a critical message for the sector – real estate agencies must now treat AML/CTF compliance as a core operational requirement rather than an optional administrative layer.

Western Australia’s peak industry body has placed a well-deserved spotlight on Sam Huxley, acknowledging his impressive early progress in commercial real estate with FN Busselton. The feature highlights Sam’s rapid transition from university graduate to fully registered commercial agent, noting the rare achievement of completing his REIWA Unrestricted Registration in just two months.

 

The article also draws attention to the professionalism, energy and initiative Sam brings to his role, as well as the meaningful contribution he is already making within the South West commercial market. His strong analytical background, commitment to learning and enthusiasm for the sector reflect the qualities that have helped him stand out so early in his career.

 

This level of external recognition is encouraging to see and signals a promising trajectory for Sam as he continues to build his skills, deepen his network and establish himself as a young professional to watch in Western Australia’s commercial property space.
