Never in her decades-long career did Giguiere think she might be responsible for monitoring and reporting potential criminal activity in the real estate market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIt is just ridiculous to put that on real estate agents and companies,\u201d Giguiere said. \u201cThat is not the role of a real estate agent.

These metros are known as \u201cgeographic targeting orders\u201d (GTOs) and include Boston, Chicago, Dallas-Fort Worth, Honolulu, Las Vegas, Los Angeles, Miami, New York City, San Antonio, San Diego, San Francisco, and Seattle. The GTOs and $300,000 reporting requirement were established in 2016 by FinCEN and were originally designed to target shell companies purchasing real estate in Manhattan and Miami. &lt;&lt;&lt;Continues on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.housingwire.com\/articles\/its-ridiculous-real-estate-industry-opposes-newly-proposed-cash-deal-reporting-rules\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">HousingWire.com<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>This article was originally published by HousingWire.
