From www.klgates.com: Maintaining confidentiality in real estate transactions in Australia involves understanding various legal structures and strategies, as there is currently no comprehensive public registry for beneficial ownership of land.

Buyers can minimise public exposure by using confidentiality agreements, engaging real estate agents, employing bare trusts, or utilizing custodial structures.

Additionally, sellers and buyers can negotiate terms to delay the registration of land transfers to keep ownership private temporarily.
