Session 02: FinCEN Developments - FinCEN is a federal government level regulatory activity which involves real estate transactions, requiring filing of disclosures of ownership of corporations, LLCs and other entities. This is the Corporate Transparency Act, but, more important to real estate and real estate lending, is a second set of proposed regulations which would require attorneys and others involved in residential real estate closings to "turn in" clients and client information for the purposes of tracking illegal activity.
