10 YEARS 🥂🎉

It’s hard to put into words what this milestone really means to us. What started as a vision has grown into something we’re incredibly proud of—and it’s all because of the amazing people we’ve had the privilege to work with along the way.

This image says it best… a little celebration, a little personality, and a whole lot of gratitude.

To our clients, partners, and friends—thank you for trusting us, supporting us, and being part of this journey. Every closing, every handshake, every relationship has helped shape who we are today.

We don’t take ourselves too seriously (as you can probably tell 😄), but we take what we do very seriously—and we’re just getting started.

Here’s to the next chapter 🥂

IMPORTANT FINCEN COMPLIANCE UPDATE

Yesterday, the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Texas ruled in favor of a Texas title agency in Flowers Title Company v. Bessent, finding that the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network’s (FinCEN) new residential reporting rule (the “Rule”) is unlawful and ordered that the Rule be vacated.

In the court’s decision, they found that the Rule exceeds FinCEN’s statutory authority under the Bank Secrecy Act.

Although the language of the court’s opinion is strong, this is not a final order and may still be appealed to the Supreme Court. Please also keep in mind, there are now split rulings on the enforceability of the Rule - as a Federal Court in Florida recently upheld the Rule in Fidelity National Financial v. Bessent.

As a result, Title Agents should continue to comply with the Rule until a final, non-appealable order is issued.

We recognize the complexity and ongoing uncertainty of this situation. Please know that we are actively monitoring any further developments and will share any new information as it arises.
