Attention all UAR members,

The Financial Crimes Enforcement Network, or FinCen, has established anti-money laundering regulations applicable to specific real estate transfers. Although previously delayed, implementation is currently set for March 1, 2026.

Affected real estate sales transactions will require the title company to submit a real estate report to FinCen. The most common scenario includes the following three components:

1) Residential property (existing 1-4 family property or land that is intended to become a 1-4 family property)
2) Non-financed transaction (non-traditional lending including hard money lending, cash or seller-financed transaction)
3) Buyer is an entity or trust

If you have a property under contract, please check with your title company to see if your transaction will require the title company to submit a real estate report to FinCen.
