Yeah, the underwriter microscope is real. I always joke that buying a house is like prepping for a financial colonoscopy—nothing’s off limits. But you nailed it: documenting everything up front saves so much headache later. I’ve had folks dig through six months of Venmo screenshots just to prove their cousin really did pay them back for pizza. It feels like overkill, but hey, if it gets you those keys, probably worth the hassle.

I always joke that buying a house is like prepping for a financial colonoscopy—nothing’s off limits.
That’s honestly the perfect analogy. The paper trail never ends, but I promise it’s not just busywork. It’s wild how even a $20 Venmo split can get flagged if it looks odd. One thing I tell folks: keep a folder (digital or paper) with pay stubs, bank statements, and any “weird” deposits flagged ahead of time. Curious—has anyone here had a bank ask about a gift deposit or random transfer? Those seem to trip up buyers more than they expect.
