I found a house I liked today and tried to schedule a showing. They required proof of funds before showing so I showed them an account balance that had over 6x the home asking price and they asked for more proof of funds because it was crypto. I said you’re also welcome to google my name since I’ve been an owner of a well known business in a certain industry and also the owner of another local business that is still active. They ghosted me.
Fiat brains
should have bought the ETF 🤣
Dumb people
I fully believe that we're not too far away from individuals taking Bitcoin as payment for property.
I'd personally take Bitcoin for my current house in a heartbeat.
I'm not at the stage where I want to peel some sats off to buy property (land - pasture).
It seems like you'd essentially need fiat sitting in your account for 3 months for the banking system to be ok with the cash sale. That thought scares the crap out of me.
idk where your at but you could call a buyers agent and they could show you the house
North Atlanta Suburbs
yeah, call a local buyers agent and they can write the offer and whatnot. you can chose your agent, find one who is a bitcoiner
I did work through an agent and the house requires both buyers agent and seller to be present for showing likely due to value considerations. I also tried calling the sellers agent directly at Sotheby’s and didn’t get a response.
Are you getting a mortgage or buying cash?
Ideally mortgage of course but pending market considerations I may have to do cash
You might want to try another lender. In the past when I have shown proof of funds, they just look at the dollar value and accept it. Just like any other portfolio
I wasn’t talking to any lenders just the agents representing the property. And the statement had the dollar amount on it
