Patriot Act

NNO, it hasn't, but I'd be interested to find out what the issue is!  Did they have large sums of cash?  Interesting as to what would trigger that!

This should have been checked right when "escrow" opened. You might have had the time then.

For reasons like this, I strongly recommend the use of local lenders and other local support professionals to my buyers. Using local professionals usually results in a smoother closing.

The only glitch I ever had with the Patriot act was when a buyer showed up with out a license to ID themselves..no other issue I'm happy to report.

Kevin: Let us know what the problem really is when you find out.

Entitle the post 'What the Patriot Act and Real Estate Have in Common'. Because I don't get it. 

Hi Kevin,  I heard about this kind of thing on the news.  They ran this kid's credit...it was flagged because the government had "pegged" him a possible terrorist.  Everything came back ok...eventually but the problem is that there are so so many errors in their system...Ted Kennedy is on the active terrorist watch among many many others.  My husband's plane tickets are physically different from any one else' we fly with and he gets searched every time we fly....couple that with the presidential candidates passports having been breached and countless other missteps due to the "Patriot Act" and I am convinced too much "blanket" carte blanch was given the current administration.  We need to reestablish a "balance" in power so we can retain our rights to live freely.  Did you know, the feds can pick you up, hold you as a terrorist, never charge you, never tell your family where you are so no one will be trying to find legal help for you?  It's in the"Patriot Act."  What if they have a case of mistaken identity?  What if they send you overseas to be "questioned" and subject you to torture...what do they say, Oh well, we thought you were affiliated to such and such group...sorry...or maybe they just kill you so you can't tell on them.   I'm all for protecting our country from without and within, but, to have this kind of free reign is too much power for a single administrative office.
