As real estate investors we fight the constant battle of getting approved for funding. Collecting paystubs and W2s seem pretty reasonable but then there are other requests that leave you scratching your head.

My recent favorite is "we need a witten explanation how you have bought so many houses with it signed and dated at the botrom"

Share your most rediculous underwriter requests.

I had to write a signed statement stating that I wasn't married to my mother (we own two properties together) and that she was my mom and not my wife.
