Important update for buyers & investors using entities or trusts
Starting March 1, new FinCEN regulations will require significantly more information from buyers, sellers, and ALL beneficial owners involved in real estate transactions—especially cash purchases, entity-owned properties, trusts, and hard money deals.
Expect requests for detailed ownership disclosures, identifying information, and reporting on individuals behind LLCs and trusts. If this information isn’t gathered early, it can slow down underwriting, delay closings, or even halt a transaction at the last minute.
The biggest risk? Waiting until the closing table to prepare.
Reach out now so we can structure your deal correctly, prepare documentation in advance, and avoid unnecessary delays once these rules take effect. Being proactive will save you time, stress, and money.
