A property lawyer says new proposals take a major burden off realtor's shoulders. The Government is streamlining the process for selling a house held by a family trust - as it makes changes to laws preventing money laundering. It says real estate agents must currently collective excessive amounts of information about the trust. But McVeagh Fleming Associate Mario Thorne says documents are often missing - or never existed.
