Connecticut Short Sale Purchase
Hello all,
In purchasing a property in Connecticut, as an out of state investor (NY), I was asked by the CT real estate salesperson handling the property to provide the last five digits of my social security number. As I am paying all cash, I was very reluctant to provide this info. I eventually gave him my LLC tax ID number instead. Anyone know of this practice? It is a short sale, but I'm not clear on why they need this info. (I'm not related to the current owners...) Thanks.
