Retirement 401k account statements work well even though it probably shouldn't .However, I have put a property under contract before with a buyer that has a great reputation before he had financing/hard money lined up. 

This is an area I believe not often explored and has led many to waste a lot of time waiting to refinance or worst waiting for appreciation, while great cash cow deals pass them by weeks after weeks, months after months, years after years. 

I think "Buying and Selling Real Estate" might be a good area, but don't hesitate to explore around for a better forum.

There is some lakefront probably worth exploring. 

I definitely do not want to do anything that isnt completely open and transparent...I'm a mental health therapist and my reputation as an honest person is extremely important to my therapy business.
