Question: Proof of Funds for Cash Offer
Hi BP-ers!
I'm a rather new real estate investor in the Denver area and listened to the recent podcast where Paul Thompson (episode 283). This episode got me pumped up to start implementing Paul's "farming" method. As I've been skimming different MLS sites and emailing listing agents, I'm being asked for offers to be submitted "in writing with proof of funds." I do specify in my email that I'm offering an all cash price and can close in around 30 days. But obviously I currently have the funds since I'll be using a combination of hard money and private money for the deals. What are they really asking for when they ask for proof of funds on an all cash offer?
Thanks!
Matt
