How does one circumvent realtors "proof of funds" request?

[Bryan Woodards]

Hello BP Nation, 

I invested in getting REO information from a website only to find out that the information provided is outdated ( won't mention site name here, but message me if you want to know). After inquiring with listed realtor and finding property sold four months ago, the realtor offered to provide updated information after receiving my "proof of funds" letter. I'm attempting to start out as a wholesaler and don't have much funds to prove. Would appreciate any suggestions to help get realtors to work with me.

Many thanks in advance,

Bryan
