As part of this Rule, purchasers are required to provide additional information and documentation about themselves, their legal entities, and the source of funds used in the reportable transaction, if applicable. The collection of this information and documentation by the Substitute Trustee is required to comply with the Rule’s reporting requirements, if applicable. To submit and certify the required information, review informative resources/guides, or to certify an exemption please visit https://fincen.foreclosurehotline.net/. If you have questions about the Rule or its applicability to you, please seek the advice of your own independent legal counsel, as the Substitute Trustee cannot give you legal advice. *The Rule is the subject of ongoing litigation in several jurisdictions. We suggest that you seek your own legal counsel if you have questions about the status of the Rule and its applicability to your sale, if any. The sale will be conducted subject (1) to confirmation that the sale is not prohibited under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, (2) to final confirmation and audit of the status of the loan with the holder of the Deed of Trust, and (3) to confirmation that the successful bidder has timely provided to the Substitute Trustee all information required by the Rule, 89 FR 70258, if applicable.
