It will not be a problem for them to deposit money into the account, but if they try to make a withdrawal, then banks will require identification.

Employer Identification Number.

I believe they verify the VIN and help you transfer title and and register the vehicle with the DMV (whatever that entails, I don't know) and you don't have to go to the DMV yourself and try to figure out what's needed.

You may even be subjecting yourself to unrelated business income tax (UBIT) if you engage in activities that would classify your checkbook control as a business such as having a manger, a business checking account, its own tax identification number, or buying and selling property that is not directly in your IRA.

For purposes of identification, _____________________ (husband and wife) (whoever is on the deed) ___________ shall be referred to herein as “Landlord”, and YOUR Name)___________________ shall be referred to herein as “Tenant”

It's already been mentioned that your account number and routing number are on your checks.If a tenant did go to make a withdrawl, wouldn't the teller ask for identification and check to see if that person is on the account?

And, as I stated before, that is me up there parting the clouds to let the sun shine through.I'm sure there are some in the witness protection program attempting to pick up extra money in real estate, that's obvious from some posts that have been made suggesting illegal activities.It's my understanding that vampires can't take a picture, some scientific reason having to do with the refraction of light.Then there are the Amish, taking a picture is just vain and a sin, so we can't go there.Don't forget the conspiracy types, they know that putting your picture on the internet is picked up by marketers (not to mention the NSA) and is linked to your activities that leads to your identification in stores and having promotions sent to your phone as you walk in, many just don't want to be tracked.So, while putting up your face is certainly more sociable, for attractive types, some just don't have an honest face and I've seen some that I doubt I'd trust regardless of what they may say, they usually resemble known felons.Just a few justifications for not putting your picture on BP, known or suspected crooks, vampires, religious convictions, conspiracy nuts or just ugly untrustworthy faces.

Looking back, the last warranty deed did not identify the mobile home on the land but the warranty deed before that did have the year, make and VIN#.

Most likely it was family and they would have had to produce some type of identification.

I would request the tenant's entire file which would include application, credit/background info, copies of identification and security deposit information.I believe security deposit will be transferred/credited to you upon closing, but you can get clarification from your closing agent/attorney.Once you close on the property, send the tenants a letter introducing yourself/your company as the new owner/manager with contact information, how/who to contact for maintenance request, how to pay rent and what will take place within the next few weeks regarding setting appointments for walk thru inspection to assess for repairs/upgrades and meet the tenants, signing new leases, requesting updated documentation (proof of income/identification ) and things of that nature
