BE PREPARED TO MAKE AN OFFER

Manhattan Living Realty strongly urges buyers to come prepared to your first meeting with your MLR agent so he/she can represent you in the best possible light. If you are a serious buyer and would like to move quickly on a property, once you have found an apartment you are interested in you will want to submit your bid/offer in a timely manner and provide the seller or selling agent with as much information and supporting financial documentation as possible.

Please be prepared with the following documentation:

1. Pre-approval letter from your bank or mortgage broker (on company letter head)
   
2. Most recent checking and savings bank statements
   
3. Most recent 401K or retirement fund statements (if applicable)
   
4. Most recent asset portfolio statements (if applicable)
   
5. List of other liquid or non-liquid assets
   
6. Letter of employment verifying your start date, annual salary including bonus (must be on company letterhead)
   
7. If self employed - letter from your CPA or attorney verifying your salary and net worth
   
8. 2 years of tax returns
   
9. Any other supporting documents or statements to support your package and financial eligibility
