To whom is the interest from an interest-bearing real estate trust account annually remitted?

The Internal Revenue Service
The Department of Commerce
The local municipality
The state housing authority

The correct answer is: The Department of Commerce

The interest from an interest-bearing real estate trust account is annually remitted to the Department of Commerce. In Wisconsin, the law mandates that any interest accrued on these accounts is to be forwarded to ensure that funds are appropriately managed and can potentially be used to benefit the public in various ways, including support for housing initiatives and other community services. The Department of Commerce plays a crucial role in overseeing these funds and ensuring they are allocated through various programs, particularly those aimed at affordable housing and development. This process helps ensure accountability and sustains funding for important state housing programs.
