On September 30, 2025, FinCEN extended the effective date of the FinCEN Residential Real Estate Rule from December 1, 2025 to March 1, 2026. To keep everyone up-to-date on this and any future changes that may occur, The Koogler Group sends FinCEN Bulletins via email to all Registered Students. As she does throughout the FinCEN Programs, Karen explains how ‘Regulatory World’ FinCEN Rule updates may impact ‘Real World’ Rule implementation.
FinCEN Educational Support is Step 4 in the Layered-Learning Process and is designed for personal (student) use
From our vantage point, if you successfully complete Steps 1 and 2 (Step 3 being optional), you should require very little (if any) Educational Support (Step 4). But it is there if you need it. More specifically, Karen is there if you need her!
Think of it as having your own Private (Virtual) Tutor. Karen has been answering email-based questions from students, readers, and assorted industry strangers for the majority of her 50-year career as an industry educator. During ‘peak periods’ – like the 2008 RESPA Final Rule and 2015 TRID Final Rule – Karen was answering 100 or more student emails per week. While that might not seem like a lot is because, as she warns students, “there are no simple ‘yes or no’ answers!”
That’s the reason she provides educational consulting services by email – so she can provide not only a ‘real world’ response but, also, the regulatory references that go along with it.
The Disclaimer that accompanies engaging Karen as an Educational Consultant – “Private Tutor” for individuals and “Virtual Director of Education” for small-business Title Agencies – is (in her own words) shown below:
- I am not your Attorney. (I do not dispense legal advice)
- I am not your Regulator. (I do not make compliance determinations)
- I am not your Title Insurer. (although I play one on T.V.)
- I am not your Employer. (I cannot approve paid ‘Mental Health’ leave)
- I am not your Mother. (but I love and care about you all the same)
