Dear Agents:
Once again, the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) has issued a Geographic Targeting Order
(GTO) on April 29, 2021, to extend the expiration date thru October 31, 2021, unless otherwise extended
further. Link to the news release: https://www.fincen.gov/news/news-releases/fincen-reissues-real-estategeographic-

As a reminder, the GTO requires reporting of purchases of any residential real property in an amount of
$300,000 or more by any legal entity (which is defined in the Order) located
in the Texas Counties of Bexar, Tarrant, or Dallas;
or located in the Florida Counties of Miami-Dade, Broward, or Palm Beach;
or located in Clark County, Nevada
Purchases by individuals are not required to be reported nor does the GTO require reporting for purchases
made by legal entities that are United States publicly traded companies.
FNTI continues to monitor all communications from FinCEN, the American Land Title Association, and the Texas
Land Title Association regarding the GTO and may amend the above information should we become aware of
necessary and/or needed changes. Not only are we at FNTI available for questions, the FinCEN Resource Center
may be contacted at 800-767-2825, (Monday thru Friday from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Eastern time).
