Anti-money laundering and compliance screening

Screen borrowers and third-party parties (sellers, builders, gift donors) against sanctions lists, PEP databases, and adverse media as part of BSA/AML compliance procedures.

Screen the following parties on a mortgage transaction: borrower (US citizen), seller (foreign national from UAE), and the gift donor providing 20% down payment.

Borrower: no hits. Seller (UAE national): flagged on EU PEP watch list — related to a UAE government official. Not a direct sanctions match but warrants enhanced due diligence. Gift donor: clean — no matches on any list. Recommend requesting additional source-of-funds documentation for the seller.

Frequently Asked Questions

How current is the real estate data for property valuations?

Real Estate Data aggregates listings and sale records from multiple data providers and is updated continuously. Recent comparable sales typically appear within 24–72 hours of recording. For final underwriting decisions, always cross-reference with your primary appraisal report.

Can the tool help with DSCR (Debt Service Coverage Ratio) analysis for investment properties?

Yes. Real Estate Data can pull rental income estimates and recent rent comparables for investment properties. Use it with Financial Calculator to run DSCR calculations based on estimated gross rental income minus expenses.

Which sanctions lists are checked during compliance screening?

Compliance Screening checks OFAC SDN and Sectoral Sanctions Identification lists, EU Consolidated List, UN Security Council Sanctions, UK OFSI, SECO, and several additional national lists. For foreign nationals, coverage spans the most relevant jurisdiction lists.

How accurate is employer verification from company lookup?

Company Lookup pulls from official government business registries (Companies House, Delaware SOS, etc.) and business databases. It verifies registered status, years in operation, and approximate headcount. It cannot verify specific salary figures — use it to confirm the employer is a legitimate operating entity.

Can I use these tools to support flood zone determination?

Deep Research can surface published FEMA flood map data for specific areas and addresses. For official flood zone determinations required for SFHA/NFIP compliance, you should use a certified flood zone determination service — treat AI research as directional context, not a regulatory determination.
