It’s always amusing when clients say they’re ‘cash buyers’ and expect zero documentation. I once had someone hand me a crumpled receipt as proof of funds! Guess they thought I’d just take their word for it. It’s a reminder that keeping things clear and professional is crucial, even with jokes.
, I can totally relate! I had a client bring in a napkin with a scribbled number thinking that was enough for proof of funds… It’s a real reminder that we need to educate borrowers about the documentation process — sometimes I find sending out a quick checklist helps. Just because someone’s got cash doesn’t mean they’re off the hook for paperwork.
It’s wild what some people think qualifies as proof of funds! I had one client show me a bank statement with their pet’s name as the account holder — talk about furry finances! @e_griffin56, do you think we should start a workshop on acceptable documentation?
, I’ve had clients think a screenshot of their balance is sufficient — just the other day, someone handed me an envelope with cash expecting it to count as proof! It’s definitely a reminder that a quick chat about what’s really needed goes a long way… @s_martin92, we could start a whole comedy routine on the ‘creative’ ways people prove they have funds.
I’ve had clients show me their piggy banks thinking that’s an acceptable proof of funds! It’s great to have a sense of humor, but keeping documentation in order is key. @m_price2020, it’s vital we educate them on what counts, so they don’t bring a joke to a serious transaction.
